After hours of troubleshooting I found that PSU and Motherboard were defected.

I was really shocked. It was working fine without any issue, I just opened the case for cleaning.

I think the main reason is that I didn't discharge the case properly and grounding hit somewhere on the chipest, who knows !!!

Now, I ordered new PSU and new motherboard. Also, I decided to upgrade the processor at once.

Thanks for reply.]]> Thu, 23 Apr 2020 17:13:06 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=74579&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#74579 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=74574&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#74574 Author: NightAntilli

I ended up RMA-ing the motherboard and got a new one from Asrock. ]]> Thu, 23 Apr 2020 08:03:26 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=74574&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#74574 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=74532&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#74532 Author: harbimk

Any advise??]]> Wed, 22 Apr 2020 04:25:25 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=74532&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#74532 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=64043&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#64043 Author: NightAntilli

Bad news... Same issues after buying the new PSU. The only difference is that now there's a boot loop.

I cleared CMOS,tried with different graphics cards again, tried both RAM modules, a single one in each slot... Error is the same 7b (or 76).

I guess all that's left is processor or motherboard.]]> Tue, 25 Jun 2019 10:50:35 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=64043&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#64043 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=63854&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#63854 Author: Xaltar

Honestly, I would go with the 850 for the headroom. On the other hand, if your power bill is something you would like to save a few $$ on then go with the platinum, though the difference will be pennies. ]]> Mon, 17 Jun 2019 23:10:18 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=63854&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#63854 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=63849&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#63849 Author: NightAntilli

Ok. I'll go for a Seasonic... Which brings me to the next question...

Is the additional $10 better spent on the Platinum 750W or the Gold 850W? ]]> Mon, 17 Jun 2019 19:24:53 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=63849&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#63849 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=63848&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#63848 Author: Xaltar

Solid choices. I have not used EVGA PSUs so I can't speak to their quality but, I have not heard anything bad about them. As for flexibility, your R9 Fury is a 275w GPU, the RTX 2080ti is only 250w. As the process size shrinks, so too does TDP and power requirements. In fact, many (most) old generation flagship GPUs require more power than current ones.

I, and many others, swear by Seasonic when it comes to PSUs. They are responsible for a lot of the best rated PSUs out there. The fact that Seasonic internals can be found in a lot of high end (other brand) PSUs speaks volumes. EVGA uses Superflower internals for it's G series PSUs if memory serves. Not bad at all but not on the same level as Seasonic IMO. ]]> Mon, 17 Jun 2019 15:45:35 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=63848&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#63848 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=63847&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#63847 Author: NightAntilli

Hm... I don't feel comfortable going for anything less than 750W. I'll be overclocking my 1700 soon and want the flexibility to upgrade to any GPU I want. Right now I'm considering;

Focus Plus Gold 750W @ $110
Focus Plus Gold 850W @ $120
Focus Plus Platinum 750W @ $120

EVGA SuperNOVA G1+ 750W @ $99
EVGA SuperNOVA G1+ 850W @ $104

Seasonic, something 80+ gold rated or above, single 12v rail of 55A+ (650w+). That gives you a fair number of options at $100 or less, any of which will be more than up to the task for your system. Better a 650w gold than a 750w bronze though, efficiency means better components which means better longevity. ]]> Mon, 17 Jun 2019 06:06:34 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=63845&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#63845 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=63844&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#63844 Author: NightAntilli

Thanks. I will do that, but in the mean time, I think I'll simply buy another PSU, simply because the RMA process generally takes so long...

Any recommendations? I'd prefer to spend around $100 but can stretch to $120 if necessary.]]> Mon, 17 Jun 2019 05:55:12 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11667&PID=63844&title=asrock-x470-taichi-wont-post#63844
