Asrock x370 killer sli ac flashing red for free#
Local pc shop should be more like 20-30 bucks (and if its a decent one would do the job for free ,afterall this is how you build a business customer base ,flashing a bios that dosnt cost you anything may net you years of custom and recommendations ) Ignore the above post that you need a gpu, your correct the 3200g has its own vega cores inside (this is the actual idea for the 'g' type ryzens) Its a small chip and will 'probably' be near the pcie x16 slots It will have a sticker on the bios chip on the board to show what version the factory shipped it with expect something like 1.6 on the sticker If it was new(old stock) it will have very early bios circa ryzen launchĪnd in no way will suport the 2200/2400/3200/3400 g apus (Might as well pay for the chip outright then)

I would like to know if it's the BIOS before I pay $100 to a pc shop and it doesn't fix the problem. Nothing is installed, we just bought it, but thanks for the warning about the drivers. The motherboard was zip-tied in foam tubing. Box was not sealed, but there weren't any stickers to break, and all the parts were there. The motherboard was bought brand new from newegg. That being said, I will still try throwing the dedicated graphics card in and see what happens. Guru3d says the 3400G is essentially an overclocked 2400G, and doesn't need a dedicated graphics card.ĪSRock's website for the motherboard has a section dedicated to graphics in the specifications tab.

This link on gizmodo says that we can "skip the graphics card" because the the Ryzen 2000 series has a decent video capabilities built in. The motherboard has an integrated HDMI port. AMD Ryzen "APU"'s has a built-in Radeon Vega 11, which is why AMD calls it an "APU", instead of just a "CPU".

My son has a video card ready to go, but we thought we'd leave it out until we get the system working properly.įrankly, your post confuses me a bit. It seems likely to me that the motherboard needs a newer BIOS, but would that prevent me from POSTing? I would expect the CPU to be backwards compatible enough to allow me to limp along enough to get to the point where I can flash the BIOS.įinally, the only old component in the mix is the power supply - it's an older Rosewill 450W, but the power shouldn't be an issue until I start adding more components, right?Īny ideas? Is there an easier way to troubleshoot than randomly buying new components until I get something that works? The CPU is on the QVL, but needs the newest BIOS. The RAM model number is not on the QVL, but I other sticks from the Corsair Vengeance line are. I tried each of the sticks of RAM in every configuration, (currently I have a single 8gb stick in A2). I Reseated all the cables, cleared the CMOS, confirmed the CPU alignment. The monitor never gets any signal, and from what I can tell, never POSTs.

The power supply clicks about every 30 seconds, which makes me believe it's in a boot loop. Building a new budget gaming system with a X370 Killer SLI/ac, a Ryzen 5 3400G, and 16 GB (2x8) Corsair Vengeance DDR4 3000, and the system will not boot, no video (using built-in HDMI), and only pulses the red LED lights on and off slowly.
