Hey everyone! I just built my first PC with a Ryzen 3 3200G and a Gigabyte A520M K V2 motherboard, along with a 16GB stick of PNY Performance DDR4 3200MHz RAM. Everything was working fine until I enabled XMP in the BIOS. Since then, my PC just won't post and the monitor stays blank. I've tried resetting the BIOS by removing the CMOS battery for a few minutes, and I even updated to the latest BIOS version from Gigabyte's official site. I also tried enabling XMP again and increased the voltage to 1.4V, but it still won't boot. Any suggestions on what I should do next?

You might want to try manually setting a lower speed or looser timings for your RAM. XMP profiles are just suggested settings and can sometimes lead to boot issues, especially with Ryzen processors which can be a bit tricky with RAM overclocking stability.
So you're saying I should start with a default speed like 2666MHz and then gradually increase it to see what works? That makes sense!
