So new build, similar problem to the first rig I built myself. Getting the never ending "bootloop" when I fire up my mobo with everything plugged in. I know everyone says to unplug everything and try it one part at a time, which i will indeed do, but I was wondering if anyone else had this issue and found a more uniform way to fix it? Last time it was because my RAM was loose. This time my connections are all secure.

Background: building a trio rig with 2 1080ti and a 1080 mini using a 270 mobo with 850w psu. First mobo I used for this build didn't work at all. This one fires up but then goes into the endless loop. I have tried a different psu and a different RAM as well as different GPU. Leaning towards it being a faulty cpu but curious to see if anyone else has any other suggestions before I dismantle everything.

CPUs are almost never bad; sometimes you can have a bent mobo pin that causes CPU related problems. However, I don't think that is the case here.

Maybe this will work:

Ensure the monitor is connected to the primary GPU ( the one in the 16x slot closest to the CPU )

Disconnect the USB or SSD/HHD from the rig.

Fully power off everything: including the PSU.

Press the power button several times to clear any remaining power in the mobo.

Turn the PSU powerswitch back to | "on".

power on (without the USB attached)

See if the bios posts; if you get nothing in 20 seconds; press ctrl + alt + del repeatedly until the system reboots.

Wait and see if the bios posts.

If the bios posts attach the USB key and press ctrl + alt + delete.

Let me know if this works.

Thanks a ton, will give it a shot. And if this doesn't work? Just break everything?

If this doesn't work I would try reimaging the USB key. (first ensure your downloaded zip produces the correct hash)

What kind of USB key are you using btw?

I've tried using the one that is on my working rig (same exact setup) and it didn't make a difference. Both USBs are Lexar JumpDrive S75 32GB

I would try swapping out the risers first; if you are using risers. If you have an identical setup that works with the same USB; then it is almost for sure a hardware problem.

Are the bios settings and version the same on the working and trouble rig?

I can't even get the bios to post. I swapped all the parts minus the mobo from bad rig to good rig, and they worked fine. so i'm guessing I have my answer
