PC acting weird after upgrade to ryzen

[Foxyh]

Problems started after upgrading my PC to ryzen.

Specs before ryzen:

Amd fx 8370

Asus m5a97 r2.0

HyperX fury 16gb 1866mhz 2 sticks

Gainward Phoenix gtx1080

3tb Seagate HDD

Corsair rm750i

 

Everything was working fine and then i got my parts for ryzen.

Specs after ryzen:

Ryzen 5 1600

Msi b350 Gaming Pro carbon

Kingston hyperX predator 16gb 3000mhz 2 sticks

Gainward Phoenix gtx1080

3tb Seagate HDD

Samsung evo 250gb SSD

Corsair rm750i

 

So i booted up the machine and everything looked fine, did a fresh windows install onto the SSD, updated to the latest motherboard bios version, got the ram running on the right xmp profile and all seemed well.

 

But fast forward to the morning of the next day and the PC wont boot, wont POST and the EZ debug led shows that the fault is in the gpu. A few restarts later the PC boots to windows and it all works again. So it has been like that for some time now, works fine until you shut it down and want to boot it up again.

 

So i tried changing the PSU to no avail, still the same problems occured.

Then i tried a different GPU and it seemed to work, took a few tries on the first time to get it to POST but after that, no problems getting past POST.

 

Now more problems surfaced after changing back to the 1080. Suddenly it wouldnt only get stuck at POST multiple times, it also booted directly to bios without any input from me. Few times showed an error stating: "There is no gop support detected in this card. 'Windows 8.1/10 feature' setting in BIOS will be changed to disabled. Press F1 to run setup. Press F2 to load default values and continue".

When the PC actually boots to windows it somewhat works. When playing games, the game sometimes would randomly crash without any errors.

Also the motherboard seems to have coil whine

 

I have a suspicion that the motherboard could be faulty but im not sure anymore. Maybe somebody here can help me narrow down the problem to the faulty part.

Use the second PCIe x16 slot for the graphics card.

Try DDU and reinstalling?

This is not necessary as it was a fresh install of windows and a lot of the problems occur during post before windows loads.

Do you have your old components?  it may be worthwhile to rebuild it and test graphics card out in that system first just to confirm its the ryzen motherboard.  You could also try flashing to an older bios? I would also contact msi about this issue.

I wont be able to use the old setup but in a few days i should get a chance to plug my 1080 into another system and see if it works there. About the bios, dont think i want to go trhough all of them. And i did ask for help from msi. Thank you for the answers. I will post again after there are any advancments.

Okay, just an update.

 

I was able to finaly test the gpu in another build, and after 2 days of working well i tought it was fine, but on the start of the 3rd day the same problems started again but on the second build. So im quite sure it has to be the GPU.

 

Thank you for your answers
