I recently upgraded my PC for better performance in demanding games, especially at 1440p. Previously, I was running a Ryzen 5600 CPU with an Auros B450 Pro motherboard, 16 GB of RAM, and an MSI MECH RX 6650XT GPU. I swapped out my motherboard, CPU, and RAM for a Gigabyte B650m Gaming Pro Wifi, a Ryzen 5 9600X, and 32 GB of Teamgroup T-Create Expert RAM (6000 MHz, CL30). Now, when I power it on, the system gets no signal to the monitor, and there's no power to my mouse or keyboard. After about 2.5 minutes, it reboots over and over again. I've tried clearing the CMOS, reseating the RAM, checking for bent pins, and updating the BIOS to support 9000 CPUs, but no luck. I appreciate any help or advice on what to try next!

Hey! It sounds like your BIOS update might not have gone through correctly. Are you sure you followed the manual step by step? Also, check for any LED indicators when you try to boot – that could give you a clue. It’s important to ensure you’ve got proper power to everything too.
I wasn't 100% sure, but I did see the LED flash indicating it was reading the USB for the BIOS. It blinked slower during the update process but then went straight into the reboot cycle again. Maybe I need to double-check something with the update?
