Hi all,
First PC build in about a decade. I've seen this issue multiple times online but no real solutions posted and the few I have seen haven't worked.
AMD RYZEN 5 7600X 6 CORES 12 THREADS UP TO 5.3GHZ THERMALRIGHT ASSASSIN X120 REFINED SE ARGB CPU AIR COOLER SAPPHIRE PULSE RADEON RX 7800 XT 16GB GDDR6 GRAPHICS CARD CORSAIR RM750E 750 WATTS FULL MODULAR LOW-NOISE ATX POWER SUPPLY MSI PRO B650M-P AM5 mATX Motherboard [PRO B650M-P] G.Skill Ripjaws S5 32GB (2X16)DDR5-6000 CL30 BK Kingston 2TB NV2 PCIe Gen4 SSD [SNV2S/2000G]
I've taken a lot of care, read the manuals and watched videos/tutorials on steps as I went. It was pretty much as I remembered the last time.
I complete the build, turn it on and get the red and yellow light on the EZ Debug.
I have reread the manuals, read Reddit and forum threads, watched YouTube videos of individual component installs to see if I've done something wrong - I don't get it.
I pulled the GPU and one stick of RAM.
CMOS Reset.
Tried combination of Ram in different ports.
Reflashed BIOS, saw it was a beta, downloaded last stable version and reflashed.
Pulled and reseated CPU plug.
Changed out to second CPU plug.
Used both CPU plugs on PSU.
Reseated CPU and heatsink.
Tried every ram slot with both sticks.
I've run through every solution I can think of and read about, nothing works. Any ideas?
Imgur album, hopefully I've just missed something and I'm an idiot.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT - I've tried every suggestion in the thread, I thank you guys for your assistance. I have no idea what the deal is. I have no other PSU/MOBO/CPU. The parts are split between 2 stores, so this should be painful.
First off, I'm pretty sure the 7600X doesn't have an integrated GPU, and it won't boot without a graphics card installed. Plug in your graphics card and make sure it's powered. The debug LED code says there's a problem with the CPU (Right? Double check the manual). Unfortunately you probably need to take the cooler off and reseat the CPU itself. Make sure the lever is properly engaged. Don't worry about the thermal paste now, just try to get it to complete POST.
The 7600 has integrated graphics, and your computer absolutely will boot with no GPU. Without an OS it won’t do anything, but it will boot.
Noted - thanks
Ah - you're right. My info is outdated. Nice of them to start adding that on the x600 line.
I did another CMOS Reset, put in the GPU and let it run for 15 min as someone suggested - nothing.
I don't think my GPU is powered, but unsure why. I assume it would have a light or something on it, the fans aren't even spinning. Have I done something silly?

The graphics card looks okay. It probably has a passive mode where the fans only spin up under load. If it doesn't that suggests an issue with the power supply affecting both the CPU and GPU.
I was curious about the integrated GPU as I read some AMDs don't have them. I haven't put the GPU back in for a while, so I'll give that a go first up.
Yes it's an issue with the CPU, but the only hint is 'CPU not detected or failed'. The manuals leave a lot to be desired.
I've taken the cooler off and reseated the CPU, the lever is very firmly down and locked in place. I'm leaning toward reseating the MOBO as some have suggested here, it's the only thing I haven't really played around with at this point.
Thank you
