MSI B450M MORTAR MAX Motherboard mATX, AM4, DDR4, LAN, USB 3.2 Gen2, TYPE-C, M.2, Mystic Light Sync, HDMI, Display Port, AMD RYZEN 1st, 2nd and 3rd Gen Ready

Product Information

so the issue is switched on pc and only got the mystic light, power led or hdd led don't light up and pc wont start psu is working and motherboard EZDebug led shows cpu as issue so was thinking cpu was dead. Supports x8 speed with Ryzen with Radeon Vega Graphics and 2nd Gen AMD Ryzen with Radeon Graphics processors Consider going 4x8GB of that RAM if you can, as you tend to get an extra 10% CPU performance in a lot of game titles from four memory ranks on zen 3. Ryzen with Radeon Graphics) or PCIe 3.0 x2 (AMD Athlon with Radeon Vega Graphics)and SATA 6Gb/s 2242/

Supports PCIe 3.0 x4 (1st, 2nd and 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen/ Ryzen with Radeon Vega Graphics and 2nd Gen AMD I know what a 2700X can do for gaming because my previous R5 3600 was around the same for gaming. Its not bad at all and could easily handle my RX5700XT which is about the same of the RX6600XT/RTX3060. Ports 1x M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 32Gbps/SATA 6Gbps up to 2280, 1 x M.2 PCIe 2.0 x4 16Gbps up to 2280, 4 x SATA 6Gbps, 1 x USB 3.1 Type-A, 1 x USB 3.1 Type-C, 6 x USB 3.0 (2 via headers), 6 x USB 2.0 (4 via headers), 1 x LAN, audio out, line in, mic, Optical S/PDIF out

I'm not confident an aging AIO designed pre-AM4 would keep a 5900x in the happy temp ranges for max boosting) is the better gaming choice with the single CCX design, the 5900x is better if you have multi threaded workloads or need the extra cache for something I gone from R5 3600 to R9 5900X and I'm thinking now to keep the system past AM5, with 1 at least GPU upgrades in future. Most likely RDNA3 in the middle of 2023. I had the CPU cooling though (H110i 280mm) that I got 63months ago (5+y). H80i will struggle to keep 5900X's temp tame under elevated loads.

The other question I have, is if I'll be able to run 32GB of RAM at 3200Mhz (4x8GB), I seem to recall that it was not possible on this board, or at least on the 2700X. Is there a MSI expert in the house?

That should not be the case unless Windows is overflowing with gunk/half corrupt, or MSI somehow borked the specific BIOS revision you flashed. Do a clean install if you haven't in a while, make sure you get the latest chipset drivers, and be on a reasonably recent BIOS. Do a few simple benchmarks and if performance is roughly in the right place then there's nothing to worry about (e.g. 650/9500 CPU-Z, 1600/21k R23 etc)Extended Heatsink Design: MSI extended PWM and enhanced circuit design ensures even high-end processors to run in full speed.
