My new pc started bootlooping

[Badwasp]

So my new pc started bootlooping it worked fine before. It’s not more than 2 weeks old. 
 

I’ve tried reseating my: Gpu, Ram and m.2 ssd.

 

I’ve taken out the cmos battery cause I enabled xmp and thought that might be it but that didn’t work. 

 

I’ve unplugged every psu cable and bluffed it In again (except the motherboard one cause it’s quite difficult on my motherboard. 

 

I’ve tried a different set of ram and starting it without the gpu and in a different pcie slot. 

 

Idk what else to try now

MoBo: ASUs prime z790-p Wi-Fi d4

CPU: i5-13600k

RAM: Corsair Dominator Platinum ddr4 4000 c19 Dc

Gpu: 2060 s ROG (used)

Briefly removing the CMOS battery is often not enough to fully clear CMOS. You can try removing the battery for a longer duration, or using the clear CMOS header on your motherboard:

Spoiler

 

If that does not work, try removing/disconnecting all devices that are not required to get to the BIOS. That includes all but one stick of RAM, all add-on cards, discrete GPU (since you have an iGPU in your CPU), HDDs, SSDs, USB devices etc.

 

If that doesn't work, try the other stick of RAM. Try each in every slot.

Hi yeah I Tried shorting the pins both with and without the battery in but it’s still bootlooping. 
 

So now with only the ram stick. But before that. Also the fan controller and aio?

No, you don't need to remove those.

 

We are trying to rule out a malfunctioning device that is preventing the motherboard from POSTing. The AIO and fan controller can't do that, but they could cause electrical problems (which would manifest differently).

 

So to do this test, you need only remove devices that may get initialized and tested during POST.

Okay thanks. I removed everything and put both ram sticks in every dimm still boot looped. 
 

Btw when shorting the pins I’m not supposed to turn on the pc right? It doesn’t say I have to so I just presume I shouldn’t do that.

No. And you should have the system unplugged and/or the PSU power switch in the off position.

I don't see any debug LEDs on your motherboard.

 

If the problem persists, you'll have to connect the speaker that came with your motherboard so you can hear the beep code.

Yeah I didn’t realise it didn’t have any debug leds when I bought it. It didn’t come with a speaker. Can I just connect a regular speaker?

Hmmm. Well. The most likely thing right now is that the motherboard itself is defective. If I were you I'd try to scrounge a beep code speaker from somewhere (a friend, an old system etc).

 

If I couldn't find one, then I'd just go ahead and RMA the motherboard.

Okay thanks. I think I’m gonna RMA the motherboard and buy a better one then.

Hey I bought a new motherboard only for it to bootloop again. This time it does have leds. The problem is the cpu. Idk what happened with my cpu.
