I have an Athlon 3000G (YD3000C6FHBOX/YD3000C6M2OFH) I’m trying to pair with a Gigabyte AB350M-DASH.

I’ve assembled the pair, connected to a 750W PSU, but I get no video signal output. The system doesn’t POST, nor does it return any error signal.

It isn’t a RAM error issue as the system doesn’t change behaviour with or without the stick.

Can anyone offer some suggestion on this issue? I’m already considering buying an error code external reader, as the board seems to have a dedicated por for it.

    As always, start by resetting CMOS

    You might need to update the BIOS on a motherboard that old to support the Ryzen 3000 series. Borrow an older CPU from someone, or see if AMD is still doing loaners. You mean Ryzen, not Athlon, right? 😅

    Edit: oh I didn’t realize AMD was still using the Athlon brand on Zen CPUs

      At this point, even if I have to go and buy an used cpu somewhere to have this machine run, I’ll do it.

      I’m finding Ryzen 5 1400 chips for less than 25€. That won’t break the bank.
