SOOPS

I've got the Red Devil and zero complaints with its performance so far. Edit mines a 5700XT not a 5600XT.

Silly suggestion but you do have the HDMI cable connected to the gpu slot? I've just built my first pc and assumed I connected via the motherboard slot, this gave nothing on the monitor. Then a friend told me I needed to use the gpu connection and voila. Man did I feel stupid.

Quick update, I think I've cracked it. I updated bios then set CSM to enabled. Changed boot from storage to uefi only and boot from pci-e/pci expansion devices to uefi only. Don't know what that's done but my m.2 nvme drive is showing now.

OK thanks, I've looked up the bios version and it v1005 dated 20190812 if that helps. https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/TUF-GAMING-X570-PLUS/HelpDesk_BIOS/

You think the m.2 slots on the motherboard may be faulty? Thanks for the suggestions, 1, I'll have a Google and see what I can find. 2, I'd have to be incredibly unlucky to get 2 busted nvme surely. 3, don't understand much of that but it's something else I can look up I guess.

Also I'm not with my pc right now, I'm at work. Just hoping for advice to try later when I get home.

I'll be honest don't even know what that means so I'm gonna say no. I had a friend talk me through some bios stuff and he had me disable cms and fast boot when I had no m.2 ssd connected, but neither of those allowed my in to bios when I put them back in the slots. I've also tried both sticks in both slots, separately and together and that made no difference either.

Hi, new to the forum and if you read on you'll see why I joined. I'm new to all this pc stuff so forgive me if I use the wrong terminology. I'll put my components here as it'll probably help you to help me.

So I've got everything connect up OK and it seemed to post just fine but I couldn't access the bios. It just got stuck on a tuf gaming logo saying press f2 or delete to enter bios. Pressing either of these keys does nothing. I can access the bios if I remove the nvme SSDs, I can also access the bios when I used a HDD I took out of a PS4 and that drive is visible in the bios screen. I can't remember the bios version but it's the standard out of the box version dated early last year (good newb reads sticky thread). So can anyone help me get this thing up and running with the m.2 nvme SSD? These two sticks are the only storage I've got for this machine but the damn thing doesn't seem to recognise them.
