So i just recently build a new pc. It's my first time and I think something went wrong. At first everything seemed fine. At the beginning while the pc booted up I sometimed got a black screen. (Lights on RAM and gpu were on but no screen) I tried everything from hdmi cables, monitor, cmos reset, took ram out etc.) But then the pc started booting normal got into bios, installed windows vis usb stick and it worked. But not for long. Got some bluescreens, worked again and now I'm at a point where I only get blackscreens. Gpu lights on and ram also. The fans spin but the ones at the gpu not anymore. Switched to an old gpu where the fans were spinning but still blackscreen. Switched the gpu back, took the ram out and back in and still no screen.

I'm now at a point where I don't know what to do. I would love to throw everything out the window and forget about it but maybe someone got any tips to try.

The build is:

Motherboard --> Gigabyte b650i ax
Case + psu and fan from NZXT H1 V1
Ssd 2 TB from WD Black
Gpu--> Gigabyte RX 6700xt
Cpu--> Amd ryzen 7600
RAM --> gskill trident z5 ddr5 6400mhz

That's about it. Wish you a great evening and thanks in advance!

Greetings
 
At first I wanted but I didn't and now it might be too late to update it because I've got no screen signal. Only this blackscreen. So only option to update it would be the Q-flash button via usb stick with the update file, right?
 
Your motherboard and processor support onboard graphics.
Remove the GPU from the equation and plug your monitor into the motherboard ports on the back.

You don't mention the memory capacity or your power supply unit.

Check the memory support list here; https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B650I-AX-rev-10/support#support-memsup
When I applied the filter for GSkill and 6400 speed, only one model was listed.
 
The PSU
  • Model:
    NP-S650M
  • Form Factor:
    SFX-L
  • Modular:
    Full
  • Wattage:
    650W
  • Compliance Standard:
    SFX 12V V.3.3 / ATX 12V V.2.4 compatible with Intel V.1.31
  • Energy Efficiency:
    80 Plus Gold 20% loading: 87%, 50% loading: 90%, 100% loading: 87% @115Vac

The RAM-Sticks

G-Skill Trident Z5 DDR5 16x2 GB
F5-6400J3239G16GX2-TZRK
CL32-39-39-102 1.40v

I don't think these are listed on the site of the gigabyte motherboard. So moght be because of the RAM sticks that aren't compatible... Can this cause any problems if they don't support them?

Edit: --> On Pcpartpicker the ones I have (RAM) should work fine even tho they're not listed
 
That memory support list, known as a QVL (Quality Vendors List) are the memory that Gigabyte have tested and guarantee work.
Obviously, as new memory comes on the market, they may not update that list in a timely manner, and probably don't test every known product that gets released.

It may be the memory, it may not. No way of knowing right now which it is.

Try removing the GPU and see if things are stable.
