Boot up Problem with Ryzen System

[Madri0776]

Hi, I recently built a Ryzen 5 system and I've been having a issue when trying to startup my pc. It would start up and shut down repeatedly or it would start up and the case fans would be at 100% speed and would then be stuck on a black screen. The only way I've figured out how to get it booted up is by opening my case, removing my RAM( single 8GB stick) and then reinserting the RAM and powering on the system. It would then work fine for a week or so until it does the same thing again. I'm just looking for some advise on what you believe it to be and how to fix it as I've tried updating the UEFI/BIOS and this hasn't fixed it. I know Ryzen has some RAM compatibility issues but I'm not sure if that is the cause.

 

Specs are as follows:

AMD Ryzen 5 1600(NO OC) with Stock Cooler

MSI Krait Gaming X370 Motherboard

Single 8GB Stick of RAM from Crucial Ballistix(Sport LT)

MSI GTX 1050 Ti(NO OC)

Corsair VS450 Powersupply

 

Also I am new to this website, first time posting, so pardon if I posted in the wrong place or any other stupid things like that

That PSU is trash.

The same thing happens to me whenever I have a bad OC (ram or cpu).

Disable the "Try me" or whatever it's called feature

Have you updated the UEFI/BIOS to the latest version?

I had similiar issues before updating my UEFI on my Crosshair 6 Hero.

I'm going to upgrade to a better PSU soon, but can't see how that would be the problem

I which Ram-slot did you insert the memory stick?

Second slot from the left

In your motherboard manual should be specified in which slot to insert the RAM in single stick configuration first.

Is it installed like that?

 

It should look like this:

Just downloaded my motherboards manual to double check and it should be in DIMM A2 which it is

MSI Motherboard

Most likely issue identified ^

 

Update your BIOS to latest

 

Load optimised defaults

 

Don't overclock anything (until confirmed stable at stock)

 

Other things to check:

 

If your fan is going straight to 100% then its the motherboard or cpu cooler is making poor contact with the cpu so temps are increasing which increases fan RPM.

Tried that already, didn't fix the problem

I made an edit to the above post. Other options include RMA and never buying MSI motherboards again

I'm using the PC at this moment and the fans are normal and CPU temps are at 36C in about a 30C room, fans only do the whole 100% thing when the pc struggles to boot.

Was it a clean install of windows?

Yes it was, I've been using the PC a good 2 months already, the problem only started like  a month ago though

Seeing as you have described the issue more now I'm leaning toward your psu dying.

 

Buy a better PSU and I expect it to go away. However the fans going AWOL makes me think its the MSI motherboard still so it will a process of elimination sort of deal. You need to test different components. Remember if you buy something and the problem persists you can return the thing you bought within 30 days.

It's a rather newish PSU about 7 months old,  but it could be the power supply. It is going to be my next upgrade, so we'll see. It's not something that the pc does every time it starts up though so it hard to troubleshoot
