Is it not strange how my GPU never showed up in the BIOS? Could the GPU be faulty even if it worked in another PC?

im not sure what you mean by that...

 

 

make sure *all* drivers including bios, chipset are updated to newest versions,  and also do not use xmp or any kind of overclocking.

I don't think it would take any less time in the states to fix this problem. It can be very difficult to get a company to admit that they sent you a defective product. You could try replacing your CPU since that is the only device left. You have a warranty on it, right?

Yeah I have a warranty. It's just that, AMD doesn't exist here so I'll likely have to send it across borders. A bit hesitant to. Not sure if it'll be worth the hassle.

bios updated?  chipset driver?

 

i mean if you updated that, then yes, it maybe is the motherboard. 

 

 

also is the ram on the QVL?

 

 

these things are most critical with Ryzen systems,  also xmp may or may not work (lol)

 

ps: also corsair ram and corsair ssd? oof. 

 

 

im just not convinced at all this is a cpu issue,  there are so many other things that can go wrong before that.

Well I haven't changed the SSD either. But I did change the ram for some Kingston renegade fury RAM which is in the motherboard QVL

 

When I changed the motherboard, I went for the same model but I don't think it's the motherboard since everything worked for 24 hours before breaking.

 

I guess I could get another SSD and try install windows on that and see if I still have the same issues. I do need another SSD soon to separate my work files from everything else.

 

Maybe a windows update gave me some borked chipset driver? I've installed all the latest everything so idk, this is really strange and I'm quite lost. I guess I want to be content with the PCIe gen 2 limit since the GPU runs fine and from videos I've seen, it's in the realm of 3-5% loss in performance. Sometimes more. Idk

Oh so what I meant by that is I've seen pictures and videos of people's bios menus and their GPU is listed under some sub menu (i.e NVIDIA RTX 4080). 

 

Here's an example:

 

I have nothing of the sort. Maybe that option just isn't available in the bios for my board although my board is an Asus board so
