Ryzen 3200G doesn't post

[static_sid]

Ryzen 3 3200G doesnt post to the monitor. 

Asus Prime A320M-K mobo

 

Tried clearing CMOS, reseating the RAM, reseating cpu, a totally new replacement motherboard. 

BIOS is updated to support 3000 series (or so the asus reps say) 

Don't have a GPU. Got a replacement mobo from amazon a few hrs ago still no post. 

 

What should I do?

I am out of ideas. Dead CPU possible?

what are the rest of the specs? what does it do, turn on everything but no screen? fans run? nothing at all?

Are you able to find out, at all, what version BIOS firmware is on the motherboard?

 

A320 released with the Ryzen 1000-series (aka Zen).

The Ryzen 3200G is a 3000-series APU (but Zen+ chip).

If the motherboard(s) you got is old stock (e.g. back of the Amazon shelf), then it *MIGHT* not have the BIOS to support the Ryzen 3200G.

 

Board requires at least BIOS version 4801 (dated  May-10-2019) or newer to work with the Ryzen 3200G.

 

Also, check all your power / cable connections.

Make sure your RAM is properly seated into the slot(s).

I won't be able to say for sure that it's with the updated bios, but the asus customer service rep told me that it is updated (he looked at the mobo PPID and saw it in the system) also the box came with "3000 series ready" logo already printed which amd says is drop-in compatible.

Ahhh... if the ASUS rep was able to track it by the serial number, AND it says '3000 Series Ready' , then the BIOS is at least updated enough.

You'll need to find out if it's the motherboard that is faulty, or CPU / Power Supply / RAM that is the problem.

yes, the motherboard I already got a replacement, but turns out it wasnt the issue, I have no way to check the other components and I am very lost as to what i should do. I dont have another spare PC or anything

i might take it to the local repair shop

Apparently your mother Board does not support Onboard Graphics : https://www.pc-specs.com/mobo/Asus/Asus_Prime_A320M-K/4033#:~:text=The Asus Prime A320M-K does not support onboard graphics,card interface of PCIe v3.

It has no on-board graphics like...a GPU built into the motherboard.

Intel / AMD has moved away from that long ago -- the GPU is INSIDE the CPU now.

 

He is using a Ryzen 3200G APU (CPU + GPU in one package).

Are you able to drop it off at a local PC shop?

Otherwise, you'll need to ask a family or friend that has a Desktop PC that can make use of DDR4 memory.

That way, you can at least test the RAM, PSU, SSD/HDD, etc...

 

IF all those checks out okay, then you are left with the APU or motherboard.

But like you said, the motherboard was replaced already...so what is left would be the APU, the Ryzen 3200G.
