Hey so a while ago (about 2-3 months) my Mainboard Gigabyte X870E Aorus Elite WiFi 7 rev 1.2 randomly died on me. I went and returned it and got send a brand new one.

I tried putting the PC back together but the CPU debug light came on and it didn't post.

Tried everything with qflash, 3 different USB 2.0 sticks formatted in FAT32 with nothing else on it but the GIGABYTE.bin file ~32mb. It starts flashing but finishes around 2 minutes and still won't boot after.

Tried it on a naked board with just the PSU connected, nothing.

Tried with just CPU and one ram stick, nothing

The only thing I can think of is trying to find a cheap 7000 series CPU to update the bios but idk where I can get one and return it after. Amazon doesn't sell 7000s in my country anymore and I don't know anyone with a 7000 CPU

Anything else I could try or didn't think of maybe? Thank you for taking the time to read this and for your help! :)
