Building New Computer!

Yeah, that's a problem, but could be worse, you could lost for example your nude photos or something terrible like this
but after couple of days of trying to find them, when you finally accept that you lost them forever and said to yourself "fuck it, they were good anyway" and than magically you would find them in the most unexpected place * so don't worry, don't lose hope, everything will work out *just kidding

Yesterday I set it to Ultra Fast Boot, and I couldn't enter BIOS anymore
I sorta kinda managed to open BIOS again and disable the ultra fast boot.
By the way, it seems that now I only have this as boot option:
#1 Windows boot manager (ADATA SX8200PNP)
I assume it's because I moved the SSD last night in a different slot.
Here's what I had before:
I'm gonna shut down my other computer and take the GPU out of it and test it.
I looked into it a bit, and it seems most people that experience it put in ryzen but are not aware they need an extra gpu to make it run, and that's why it happens. So GPU related, or lack of GPU.
Anyway I'll test my other GPU in a few minutes and we'll see how it goes...

what a shame,
glad at least its just the video card that is bad.
It's actually really common when building a pc that one part will be defective!
you can't exchange it or return it?

I don't think so. In fact, the other GPU that I used to test, I also bought that one from him.
I hate GPUs...
Yeah right, I'm actually smiling that it's the GPU and not, say, the CPU or the Mobo
Well, yeah. I always boot with the monitor connected to the GPU.
It won't work with the VGA on the motherboard because I have Ryzen, and Ryzen requires an additional GPU in order to work :/
Actually, for this new GPU I have to use a DVI-D to VGA converter because my new GPU has no VGA slot. Do you think maybe the monitor... like... maybe that connection there is what fucks up on the restart?

Shit... SHIT!! It's not the card, it's fucking DVI connector!!!
Duuuuuuuuuuuuuude
My old GPU also has a DVI slot, so connected the VGA cable to the DVI adapter and plugged it into the GPU. I turned on the computer, it showed fine. But then I restarted it, and THE SAME PROBLEM!
It's not even a faulty GPU, it's this connection shit!!!
Wooooooooow

Ok guys, well, I got to the bottom of it. Something about DVI/VGA and the monitor is the problem.
If I plug my old GPU and put in the VGA cable, everything works even after restart.
However, if I plug the DVI-D to VGA converter in the new GPU, it won't work after restart. And I tried both the DVI-D and the DVI-I slot no the GPU, and both exhibit the same behavior. I get screen if I turn on the computer, but no screen if I do a restart.
WHY?

So here is a trip for you.
I tried plugging the vga cable in another monitor I have. This one is also a piece of crap, but a more recent piece of crap. And for some reason, on this one the display works even after restart
But I tried it with my old GPU plugged in.
I'll put in the new GPU and try again. Fingers crossed.

Me too
...
I plugged in the new GPU, and the computer opened fine.
Monitor - a more recent piece of crap than the other monitor which is a very old piece of crap (both monitors only have VGA slot)
VGA cable going from monitor into DVI-D adapter, then DVI-D plug going into GPU's DVI-D slot
Computer started fine...
Computer restarted... fine...
Fuck you monitor! I'll fucking kill you!
Boys, I think we're good.

Ok. So the monitor I had issues with probably didn't wanna fully cooperate with the DVI.
I took the "problematic" monitor and put it on my other computer. The other computer is VGA to VGA cable. I restarted the computer, and I have screen on the monitor no problem
Well, I'm exaggerating on the no problem. The screen has a light-blue look to it. Not very pleasant on the eyes. Gotta play with the monitor or my windows screen brightness crap to adjust it, because it's unbearable to look at the way it is now
I'll do that, then back to the new computer, we gonna make love now

So I'm playing around with this monitor. It has RGB settings.
9300K the monitor is normal-ish.
6500K it's fucking green
sRGB it's fucking lighter green
And there's also custom colors I can adjust.
Anyway I'll leave it at 9300k, it's.. um.. livable.. i can live with it.

Ok guys, I still have to actually put things as they were in the computer. Remember I moved SSD to a different slots, and removed RAMs and put in a different older smaller Ram, and removed the USB and RGB cables from the CPU.
I'm gonna test the computer one more time on the restart as is, and if it's ok then I'll proceed to put everything back the way it's meant to be. And I'll test it with every component/cable I plug in. Really step by step careful.
I consider everything from this point on clear skies smooth flying, but, well, we'll see...
