Hello everyone,
System specs:
i5 8600K
16GB GSKILL Trident Z 3200Mhz
MSI Z370 Gaming Pro Carbon
750 Watt PSU
Corsair H115i liquid cooler
Asus Xonar Phoebus soundcard
Samsung 860 EVO 1TB
I have recently bought myself a new GPU, an MSI RTX 2070 Super Gaming X. This replaced my old MSI Vega 56.
I've been running an OC on my CPU for over a year now, being completely stable.
i5 8600K @ 5.0 Ghz with 1.320v
However, after I installed my new RTX card, the system won't post anymore. The 'EZ DBUG LED' remains lit and I don't get any screen whatsoever.
I jumped the 2 pins on my MOBO and the system booted fine. After I tried the OC again, it boots perfectly into windows. If I hit: 'Restart' within Windows, the system will restart without any problem.
If I shut down the PC and turn it back on 5 minutes later, the system won't post again, forcing me to short the pins and reset the CMOS again.
All the fans and RGB lights do come on and remain on/spinning.
I tried to use XMP only, which worked perfecly fine.
I tried to use the maximum turbo frequency (which is 4.4Ghz on all cores for this CPU), which worked perfectly fine.
Once I try 4.5 GHz, I get the same issue. It does post, within windows I can click restart without any problems, but when I shutdown and try to boot the machine 10 minutes later, it won't post.
I have no clue what to do, so can someone give me any advice?
Thanks in advace!
edit: I switched to an older bios too, without succes.
Putting back in the old GPU doesn't work either, it is not being recognized at all.
