I really wonder why I'm lenient enough to put those ngreedia guys not on the ignore list. Just don*t please. It's annoying to read the topic.

Asus also destroyed AMD x3d cpus in the past in their mainboards. Let's stay on topic. It seems to be Asrock company. It seems to be asrock nova mainboard. It seems to be 9800x3d processor.
mine died too. all new computer parts except gpu. used with 9800x3d and asrock x870 steel legend. stock settings. 3.16 asrock bios. I was playing yakuza infinite wealth on steam and all of a sudden my game froze. the power button on the case didn't work and my pc wouldn't turn off. I had to turn it off via the switch in the back of the case. after this, I tried turning the pc on but won't display anything on my monitor. at this point I'm freaking out but calmly think it's my gpu since that's the only old component in this brand new rig. I order a 4060 and replace the gpu. still nothing. I notice a red light next to cpu on MB which equates to cpu dysfunction as per the motherboard manual. I've tried reseating my cpu, ram, clearing cmos. nothing at all. filled out rma on friday of last week. sent out the package yesterday...I hope they have replacement parts given it's sold out...anyone else experience similar issues or did an rma? how long did it take? I'll keep folks posted but man...really disappointing considering it's my first amd cpu
If you suspect a bad dedicated graphic card or mainboard setting:
Mainboard and cpu restraints apply. The 9800X3d should also have a intetraged cpu graphics like my 7600x with the asus x670 mainboard. some processords do nto have cpu graphics, some mainboards can not route to mainboard ports the cpu graphics.
there is no need to "order a 4060" (most likely nvidia 4060 graphic card implied) to check if a mainboard can post with mainboard + cpu + single ram stick + usb keyboard + monitor cable + 1x monitor.
POST = power on self test ... first thing a mainboard/uefi/bios usually does. (i wrote htis to educate on how to test for ... my box won't post. post is important before you can use your most likely windows operating system)
if that works you can add more compoents and go on to find the issue. Or test with well known, tested good parts. 100% working parts - not suspecting working parts. e.g. it helps to have a duplicate computer where you can swap parts with to check
PBO is different on every motherboard.
i would also include the uefi - firmware version of the mainboard
i think after asus destroyed on "purpose" am5 processors some values were reduced or hidden behind other settings.
