Hi
I just got my new built from PcSpecialist with folloowing specs.
AMD Ryzen 7 3700X
ASUS® TUF X570-PLUS GAMING
32GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR4 3200MHz (2 x 16GB)
6GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 1660 SUPER
I have following issue:
Every once in a while when I restart the system it gets stuck before POST. It does not always happen - maybe 1 in 4/5 reboots. It does not make difference how the reboot was triggered. Whether nicely restarted from windows, after entering bios, using case button or during windows install - it just sometimes gets stuck.
CPU fans and all the fancy lights are on. On motherboard the orange DRAM LED is up. No output to the screen.
It takes one or more resets to bring the rig up. Once its up it runs fine - I can use OS no problem and I have done some gaming but no testing or anything.
Another thing is that even if the system boots up it is still stuck on DRAM light for about 5-6 seconds - that happens every time - before it quickly goes though other LEDs and goes to POST. It is not a major issue but it just does not feel right. In my experience with previous PCs the POST would happen almost instantly with some output to the screen.
When the system runs i can see the memory is detected properly both in Windows and BIOS (32G at 3200).
I also checked memory access times in BIOS and they are in line with ASUS specs for MOBO, Ryzen 2 and memory type - Corsair 2x16G 3200 (16-18-18-36). One thing I noticed is that the long part no string is slightly different between my modules and the one specified by ASUS.
I looked at the power connections to the CPU, MOBO and GPU all seem to be set nice and tightly. I have checked if memory modules are sat properly in their slots (B2 A2) as well.
Any advice as what could be causing the issue?
I did look online and answers varied (faulty or incompatible MOBO, RAM even CPU).
I will be speaking with pcspecialist. Their customer service is pretty good but I do need the rig for school so sending it back for a recheck is going to be a major pain.
I appreciate any advice.
