Hello, I'm in pickle here.
I just purchased a place holder cpu for me until I upgrade the cpu to something much better.
The cpu in question is the new A6-9500 7th gen from AMD's APU lineup.
I installed it yesterday and everything went well. I read that its overclockable from AMD's support page and tried it with no issues. I think I killed it after setting it to 4.5 after a successful 4.2 Ghz.
Volatge for 4.2 was 1.41 and voltage for 4.5 was 1.420. My computer then did the typical overclock failed thing and I was expecting it to reboot itself back to default settings. But now it boots since yesterday but refuse to post a msi logo screen on my hdtv display.
I reset the cmos battery three times according to the MSI B350 PC Mate Manual. Even has the cmos battery pulled out for 3 hours and had the screwdriver safely placed on the jumper to reset to bios settings but to no avail. I just need some advice here on whether or not I need a new cpu for something else is going wrong.
My motherboard seems to work perfect as everything spins fan wise and continues to spin but no image via the display and intergrated graphics R5 or my dedicated gpu.
The motherboard is detecting that the cpu has failed or isn't being detected. I made sure the cpu is seated properly twice, took out the ram slots and tried one by one, seated the gpu again and even pulled everything I could out to put back in properly to rule out any installation issues.
I assuming the cpu has died to the volatge at 1.42 but I'm lost as this is my first cpu to do such a thing, the other ones I've handled did just fine. I'm no expert at overclocking but I do know some things so am lost right now.
Really want to my new computer working now instead of relying on my laptop.
My system follows below
AMD A-Series a6-9500
MSI B350 PC Mate ATX Mobo
8GB of DDR4 Memory
NVIDIA GTX 760 2GB
EVGA 550 Watt PSU
