When changing CPU some mobos will halt on the POST screen and require to reset defaults/confirm change. Also some consumer mobos will not POST without a display adapter.

Strix B450-I / Version 4801 

 

Okay, so at least we know it is flashed with a BIOS that supports Ryzen 5000-series.
 

@AbydosOneis correct.

You cannot make it past P.O.S.T. without a GPU / iGPU.

The Ryzen 3200G has an iGPU, BUT the Ryzen 5950X DOES NOT.

You need a graphics card, if you don't already have one.

Also the vrm on that board gets really toasty with 12 and 16 cores so make sure there is decent airflow for it.
