Thank you for the solid response, I figured it out and plugged in a old gpu for the time being until my new one arrives, and am up and running now. My last build was a fx series chip so indeed I was not up on current hardware. Also usually I have everything at the ready but newegg decided to split my shipments having the gpu come almost a full week after the rest of the parts. Who wants to sit on a pile of brand new pc parts so I figured I could get everything built and ready to just plug the gpu in on arrival. Was my mistake.

The other guy could have easily summed this up in his first post but wanted to play games like a idiot on support forums, no clue why someone would do that.]]> Mon, 11 Feb 2019 21:08:37 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10873&PID=60632&title=unable-to-post-taichi-x470-ulti#60632 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10873&PID=60630&title=unable-to-post-taichi-x470-ulti#60630 Author: Xaltar

On all AM4 boards that provide a display output (or several) you need an APU in order to use them. Currently the only CPUs that can be used with the "onboard" display outputs are:

Athlon 2XXge (200, 220 etc)
Ryzen 3 2200g
Ryzen 5 2400g

APUs listed in order of price and performance. There are also a line of Bristol Ridge APUs but I would strongly advise against those. The list above are the only CPUs I would recommend.

How ridiculous.

- Vega Series Graphics in Ryzen Series APU
not on the mainboard!

You have a Ryzen 2700, that is not an APU.

Buy a graphics card or replace the Ryzen 2700 with an APU like
Ryzen 3 2200G or Ryzen 5 2400G

and than you can continue with your system setup.]]> Mon, 11 Feb 2019 06:07:55 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10873&PID=60623&title=unable-to-post-taichi-x470-ulti#60623 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10873&PID=60621&title=unable-to-post-taichi-x470-ulti#60621 Author: evilized

I'm reading the specs. If I'm just that blind and I'm not posting due to not having a gpu installed that is great news, but I'm pretty sure there is in fact on board graphics.

Please stop being crypic in your response, I'm here to get help, and in these situations people tend to be upset and not needed to be poked.]]> Mon, 11 Feb 2019 05:31:34 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10873&PID=60621&title=unable-to-post-taichi-x470-ulti#60621 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10873&PID=60620&title=unable-to-post-taichi-x470-ulti#60620 Author: Ray62

Come on! The board has NO onboard graphics, just a hdmi port.
And read the specs of this board very carefully!

I'm not sure I understand?

Why am I dreaming? The board has onboard graphics via hdmi. Is there a reason I would not be able to post without having a gpu installed? If I have missed something some kind of explanation and help would be appreciated as I would rather not do a RMA.]]> Mon, 11 Feb 2019 05:06:37 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10873&PID=60618&title=unable-to-post-taichi-x470-ulti#60618 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10873&PID=60617&title=unable-to-post-taichi-x470-ulti#60617 Author: Ray62

after some cord swapping ive been able to run power to bother the 8pin and 4 pin cpu powers. So I can rule that out I think.

Still I can not post. Never get to any kind of screen just a blank screen and the board reading 0d.]]> Sun, 10 Feb 2019 22:28:31 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10873&PID=60613&title=unable-to-post-taichi-x470-ulti#60613
