I really need help

I upgraded my motherboard, cpu, and ram recently and I’ve been having this issue ever since. When I press a key, sometimes it acts like I’m holding it. There’s also input delay that comes and goes. And randomly my keyboard, mouse, mic, and the rgb on my fans shut off for 10ish seconds.

Here’s my specs:

Gigabyte x870 gaming WiFi 6
Ryzen 7 7800x3d
Radeon 7700xt
2x16 ddr5 Corsair vengeance rgb
Corsair 850 watt power supply
BIOS version f14c
Windows 10

I’ll list what I’ve done to fix it so far.

Updated graphics drivers
Deleted gigabyte control center
Updated BIOS
Turned of x3d boost
Turned of expo
Updated chipset drivers
Updated BIOS again
Updated usb drivers (not a clue if that worked)
Deleted gigabyte ai memory boost

I don’t know what else to do and I’m on the verge of losing my sanity. Please, someone help me.

Sent a motherboard in for repair for what i expted to be a bent CPU socket pin, and this is what they said a week later.

Mind you, the board was treated flawlessly, the m2 extreme button broke off when it was pressed, and was mever mistreated ,hit or slammed or anything, always treated flawlessly. The board is 5 months old. What i think happened is they messed it up and don't want to take responsibility so they are saying its my fault. Luckily i have pictures to prove i didnt.

CPU Light constantly lit?

Hello there, I have a pretty decent PC, and for some reason my CPU (top left) light on the motherboard has been lit for a solid 3 months or so. I never really tried to troubleshoot until recently though.

I have a gigabyte B850 gaming wifi6 motherboard, asus prime 5070 ti, and 9800X3D cpu. My cooler is a 2 fan corsair AIO. My ram is 64gb teamforce t-create.

I unplugged everything and turned the power off, power cycled it, took out the cmos battery for 10 minutes, unplugged and re-plugged all cables going into the motherboard and from the PSU itself, re-seated the ram and most recently updated the bios from an f5 something all the way to the most recent one of f12 something. Still, the CPU light is just solid all the time. Performance is not affected at all. Still works perfectly and has normal temps, tested in very demanding games. One quirk I will say my PC has had since I built it 18 months ago is that it will rarely, randomly take a long time to boot, where I hit the button and the fans ramp all the way up, and stay spinning very quickly, then nothing happens for a solid 2 minutes, before I think it re-boots itself and then works normally. This is rare for me, I've seen it maybe once a month, and I don't know if it's related or not. I work from home and game a lot so this PC sees a lot of milage, so I just think if there was actually a problem, it would have given out or stopped working or something by now. Maybe some software? Maybe faulty cable or something? I truly have no idea.

Gigabyte RX 7600 caught fire after 25 days - Gigabyte/ Modx RMA experience so far. Has anyone gotten a replacement for a burnt card easily?

Hi everyone, I recently bought a brand-new Gigabyte RX 7600 from Modx Computers in July. Unfortunately, after just 25 days of normal gaming, an internal capacitor under the heatsink caught fire and burnt out.

I want to clarify that my entire house runs on a heavy duty whole house main line voltage stabilizer, and my PC uses a top-tier MSI 850W Gold PSU. Both the house stabilizer and the PSU are working flawlessly with zero damage, and the motherboard PCIe slot is perfectly clean. This completely isolated the short, proving that my incoming home electricity was 100% stable and the fire was strictly an internal factory component defect under the GPU heatsink (vrm).

Initially, the retailer mentioned that a warranty might be tough for a burnt card for this case. I managed to connect with official Gigabyte brand representatives here on Reddit. They were incredibly helpful and put me in touch with their regional technical service head in Delhi.

The service head confirmed that the official Gigabyte service center does not charge anything for inspections or diagnostics on these cases. Following their guidance, I have successfully dispatched the physical card to the Nehru Place service.

Has anyone else here dealt with a similar internal component fire on a brand new card under warranty in India? Did Gigabyte provide a fresh factory replacement smoothly once the card arrived? Any shared experiences would give me great peace of mind while I wait! Thanks.

My monitor won’t display my ps5 even though it’s shows for a couple seconds and I can still hear it?

Ever since yesterday, my monitor hasn’t displayed my Ps5 even though it’ll turn on for a bit. I find it weird that even though my Ps5 works fine my monitor displays it for a few seconds then stops. In the video i’m plugging in the Hdmi and i’ve tried switching it multiple times. Does anyone have a solution for this?

Having aio fan issues

I had a lianli hydro shift aio and I noticed the fans were not spinning up all the time upon boot or waking from sleep. I don’t know when the issue started but I noticed it 2 weeks ago. I bought the thermalright aio in the video and it’s doing the same thing. I changed from dc to pwm in bios and created a fan curve so the fans will start at 100 percent but that didn’t help. I have the pump hooked up to the cpu opt pump header and I have the aio fans connected to sys fan 6 since the cpu and cpu opt did the same thing. This is a z790 Aorus pro x version 1.0 .

Should I be worried?

This is a Windforce 5080 that I’ve had for about a year, and I just noticed the thermal paste has shifted/slid off the heatsink. I know this has been a pretty big controversy with these cards.

The card is running great, with peak temps around 80°C. Would you leave it as-is, or would you recommend having the thermal compound reapplied?

Preciso de ajuda - CSM para ativar secure boot

Problema ao desativar CSM para ativar Secure Boot — Gigabyte H310M M.2 2.0 + GTX 1650

Olá, pessoal! Estou tentando ativar o Secure Boot no meu PC para conseguir jogar VALORANT no Windows 11, mas estou enfrentando um problema ao desativar o CSM.

Configuração do PC:

  • Placa-mãe: Gigabyte H310M M.2 2.0 Rev. 1.0
  • BIOS: F16a — 29/11/2021
  • Processador: Intel Core i5-9400
  • Placa de vídeo: Gigabyte/NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650
  • VBIOS da GPU: 90.17.2A.00.A6
  • GPU Device ID: 10DE:1F82
  • Subsystem ID: 3FCB1458
  • Sistema operacional: Windows 11
  • Modo da BIOS no Windows: UEFI
  • Disco do Windows: GPT
  • Boot Option #1: Windows Boot Manager (Kingston SNV3S500G)
  • TPM: TPM 2.0 ativo
  • GPU-Z: UEFI = marcado
  • Driver gráfico: WDDM 3.2
  • Bus Interface: PCIe x16 3.0 @ x16 1.1 em repouso
  • Resizable BAR: Disabled

O problema

Com o CSM Enabled, o computador funciona normalmente e entra no Windows sem nenhum problema.

Porém, o Secure Boot não aparece enquanto o CSM está ativado.

Seguindo a configuração da BIOS, alterei:

  • Windows 8/10 WHQL → Enabled
  • CSM Support → Disabled

Ao desativar o CSM, o menu Secure Boot aparece.

Dentro dele fica:

  • Secure Boot Customization: Standard
  • Secure Boot: Disabled

Porém, quando tento colocar Secure Boot → Enabled, a BIOS mostra a mensagem:

“Disable the CSM in setup. Repeat operation after reboot to ensure UEFI Video (GOP) driver is operational.”

Como o CSM já está desativado, a orientação da mensagem é salvar, reiniciar e voltar à BIOS.

O que acontece após salvar e reiniciar

Na primeira tentativa, o PC reiniciou e ficou travado na logo da GIGABYTE, sem entrar no Windows e sem conseguir entrar na BIOS usando DEL.

Em outra tentativa, a logo mudou para uma tela menor com GIGABYTE Ultra Durable, mas novamente ficou completamente travado nessa tela.

O Windows não chega a iniciar. O travamento acontece antes do Windows, durante o POST/inicialização da placa-mãe.

Quando isso acontece, não consigo entrar novamente na BIOS.

Para recuperar o computador, precisei fazer Clear CMOS pelo jumper CLR_CMOS. Depois disso, o PC volta a iniciar normalmente, o CSM retorna para Enabled e o Windows funciona normalmente.

Need help updating motherboard

Hi All. I have a Gigabyte Auros B450 Pro Wifi Rev 1.0 motherboard in my computer and trying to update it to latest BIOS from F50 to F67 or whatever the latest one is. I am getting very frustrated because I cannot for the life of me figure this out. When I look at instruction manual it says I can do a Q flash or @BIOS utility. Q flash cannot be performed because it does not detect update file, i don’t know how to do this. And there is no @BIOS utility anywhere from what I can find and people say it is not recommended anyways. Please help, I just want to upgrade my CPU but I need to upgrade BIOS but I cannot even do that.

Gigabyte B550M DS3H AC R2 - fails to boot on AC power loss

Help me PCMR - this issue has me screwed. I've never seen anything like it before - and don't know what to do.

Troubleshooting steps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNWWvC_6zD8

The PC won't boot after AC power has been lost unless I reset the BIOS, then allow it to start from scratch again.

After configuring the BIOS (even just XMP + SVM), the PC will always boot fine until AC power is lost again. Then either the BIOS will reset or the PC will just fail to boot again.

  • CPU: Ryzen 5700G.
  • RAM: 4 x 32Gb CMK64GX4M2E3200C16 Vengeance LPX 64GB 3200MHz DDR4

An unconfigured Windows 11 install is on the NVMe SSD just for testing purposes.

CMOS battery measures at 3.1v - which seems to remove that avenue as a fault.

I have tried 1 DDR stick, 2, and 4 with no difference in behaviour.

Powering off via the switch on the Corsair power supply when Windows is booted will cause the same failure to boot problem - requiring a BIOS reset via the jumper to bring it back to life.

The board has been RMA'ed to Gigabyte - who sent it back saying No Fault Found.

Have tried BIOS versions F3 and F4a - Gigabyte sent it back to me with F3.

Help me PCMR - you're my only hope. What the hell am I missing?

Hello i have a Problem i try to upgrade my PC from a chinese no brand motherboard to an Gigabyte B550M GAMING X WIFI6 with a new ryzen Ryzen 7 5800X3D but i for some reasons my PC won’t start it feels like that there is no Electricity in the build at all.

I don’t know if the F Panel is defect or something like that. I already let the motherboard replace. But my PC just won’t start. Even too that it still works with my old Motherboard so the power supply shouldn’t be defect. I am so confused about it. Can someone help me with it? Like when i press the Power button on my PC nothing happens but everything is plugged in right.

BIOS update failure, bricked MOBO - are there any casualties?

Hello. Recently I have made a post about a failed BIOS update that made my motherboard a complete unfixable brick. As for now the motherboard is being currently investigated upon RMA. For some off reason I did the update successfully, yet it just bricked my motherboard completely.

So while I await for the final verdict on warranty, one question was bothering me. What are the odds that failure of the motherboard also caused other components to collapse? Like GPU, CPU, PSU?

Worth noting that I did not see any sparks, powet outages, fire, or any burning smell. My PC just would not boot, as it left me on black screen with 'No Signal'.

Hopefully nothing else failed during that... right?

Regarding the TPM Vulnerability and Security Update

By now, most of us know about the recent security vulnerabilities affecting TPM 2.0 modules across a wide range of Ryzen processors. I'm a strong believer that if it ain't broken, don't fix it. I have never updated my BIOS since my PC was first assembled and configured by a technician, and I'm admittedly nervous about doing this myself. Especially with the recent reports of a 7800X3D CPU burning out despite running the latest BIOS version. I'm worried that updating to fix this security flaw might cause instability, lower performance, or even result in hardware damage. The big question is: can I safely skip this update? And is this vulnerability actually a serious threat for an average everyday user like me?

My Games Stutters after CPU and Motherboard change

Hello, I recently upgraded my CPU for a Ryzen 5 5500X3D, I had an issue with my old MB so I changed for a Gigabyte B550 EAGLE, I also changed my Windows since the MB change made me lose my key product (forgot to mention that I have an RTX 2080 SUPER and 32Go RAM (B0BC12957X))

So with that explained I'm having really horrible micro stutters (maybe GPU throttle idk ?) since I upgraded the CPU and MB, but I downloaded everything that I had to download driver-wise and I STILL have those stutters

I'll link a video on Apex to showcase what's it doing

https://youtu.be/xA\_5E91f2Qg?si=LX\_DIxdetjsGFcxb

(You can see the FPS drops on the top right corner)

Thanks in advance !
