I asked a friend to help me upgrade my old rig so I could enjoy Fallout 4 on higher end settings. His suggestions resulted in my purchasing:

AMD FX 9590
XFX Radeon R9 380 R9-380P-4255 4GB 256-Bit GDDR5 Video Card
ASRock 990 FX Fatal1ty Killer

I'm using my Corsair 850w PSU and on the initial boot after installing the new components left me with a screen that said the mobo recognized my CPU but it was not on the supported list. I cleared my CMOS and now the computer won't even turn on.

Any suggestions? I'd really appreciate help.

If you replace the FX-9590 with your old CPU, it should turn on and boot like normal. If not, the 220W CPU may have done some damage on the 125W board.
