My system is turning on but not displaying the image bios

YukiSanz
Go to solution Solved by YukiSanz,

what i did was i took it to a pc shop for an bios update and i could play it. neither the flashback worked or amd helped on my problem they said i was not eligible for boot kit loan warranty.

I have an p500a drgb case, with gigabyte aorus elite x570 wifi mobo, cpu 5800x, m.2 crucial p5 1tb, ram crucial ballistix elite 16x8gb 4000mghz, x62 aio, psu phanteks revolt pro 850w 80+gold. Don't have a gpu yet planning on a 3080 or 6800xt which ever i can buy first at msrp :)

 

My question is do I need to update the bios with an older cpu or do I need a gpu to start off, cuz the gigabyte website says the mobo has an integrated gpu to display the bios.

 

To give more context on my situation it's my first build I could've just plug something wrong. The case fans turns on and aio fans too the pump turns on too, the mobo lights doesn't turn on but the mobo little fan does.

 

Don't know if these images will be of any use.

 

Thanks in advance.

where does it say that. Also the motherboard most likely won't boot with the 5800 if you don't have the correct bios, even if you had a GPU.

So I just need a zen 2 cpu?

It depends, some motherboard have a flash bios button that allows you to flash the bios without cpu, memory or a gpu.

That depends, some motherboard do allow you too boot with a cpu that doesn't have a iGPU and no GPU either. It's called headless boot

Can't confirm to be honest. Have you renamed the file to GIGABYTE.bin? Your best choice might be to contact Gigabyte, they'll help you out.

Onboard graphics ONLY if it is an Ryzen APU that has CPU + GPU on-die.

Ryzen CPU does not have an GPU on-die.

You NEED a graphics card.

 

The Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite DOES have the Q-Flash Plus feature.

The BIOS flash button is not on the back of the motherboard, but is a white button along the bottom of the motherboard.

Plug your USB stick into the blue-white USB port on the back that says 'BIOS' above it.

Follow Gigabyte's steps on how to use Q-Flash Plus .... to the word.

Make sure the BIOS file is unzipped, renamed, and is the ONLY thing on the USB stick. Also, not in a folder / sub-folder. Straight into the empty USB stick.

Thanks for the very detailed respond. I did exactly that and the light of the flash+ button didn't turn on at all, and I've seen from other post that the flash button hasn't worked out for them and they just got a 3200g cpu to update the bios.
