Something is wrong

[INeedhelpASAPplz]

I dont know whats wrong with my pc. It is my First time building one following linus build guide. And for some reason every time i press the switch button the pc keeps turning on and off continously and does not boot, I tried switching ram and putting it in different ram slot, I still had the problem but it just stayed on longer then went on a loop again and no boot, I replaced everything even the motherboard but when switch ed the Cpu to another one it worked but i really prefer using the one i have now. Has anyone have an idea to what is wrong with the Cpu, please help

 

 

My specs:

I7-3770(i7-2600 currently in motherboard) 

 

6gb Ddr3 ram

 

500watt EVGA POWER SUPPLY

 

Xfx rx 570 4gb and xfx r7750 1gb

 

Motherboard is gigabyte ga-p67a-d3-b3

Is there any reason for building PC using ancient hardware?

You probably plug the wrong way the start/reset/HHD/Light on

Have a look.

Update the motherboard BIOS to version F7 available from Gigabyte's website. Older versions of the BIOS didn't support the i7 3770.

cheap

2600 to 3770 is not really an upgrade, the 2600 is better IMO as it had soldered TIM.

Make sure your BIOS is up to date and then also if it keeps rebooting maybe give it 5 mins it could be RAM training.

You can do that with with Ryzen platform. Used Ryzen 5s go for less than 100 USD.

And the mainboard and DDR4 cost, no point spending on that if you don't need it.

yeah but you can get a 3770 for like $60, coupled with some super cheap DDR3 and motherboard it's a lot more economical than Ryzen for the immediate price to performance, plus OP can just save up and get a really killer AM5 platform once that's available

Thats true. I kinda forgot about AM5. I think I will be doing the same.

I forgot to mention, my motherboard is a rev 2.0

Could it be related to the issue?

if you have updated the BIOS, it would be installed already. The BIOS is updated when it is installed.

Looks like the CPU shouldl be supported out of the box without an update.

Does the i7 3770 work in the other system?
