Hello guys,

These are the components I already bought.

1000 watts PSU.

Could you guys help me identifying if maybe of the components is not compatible...

I tried resetting CMOS, tried installing the system with as few components possible but no luck.. Now I'm desperate because I dont have another system where I can test for bad components.

Any help or suggestions will be appreciate it.

everything should be compatible.. if it wasnt ur pc would not boot at all..

what version of windows 10 are u trying to install? some of the older versions will not work with 20 series turning gpu and 9th gen cpu

Thanks a lot for your answer.

Sadly I can't check the version right now since I'm at work but I'm pretty sure the version I'm installing is from at least 2018..

You just gave me hope so when I get home I'll get my hands on the latest version and see if that works.

Sounds like ram issue
Try with different single sticks vs all sticks.

Tried that already, thing is I don´t have other stick to try with...

just download some more ram

ez

You only have a single stick? Not a set of 2 or 4

Rip

Latest windows version worked fine but the problem was with the BIOS.. Once I updated it I got past the part where PC kept freezing.

Thanks for the suggestions!
