So I upgraded from Ryzen 5 1600 to 5600x.
I flashed the bios of b450m gaming gigabyte motherboard and now it doesn't give any signs of showing anything on the screen.
The bios update was from F40 to the latest one and I might have done something stupid by updating it up to the latest one.
Maybe I should have updated it incrementally from one bios version to the other or is it totally fine?
The PC starts, all fans are spinning, but screen doesn't give any signs, all black.
Doesn't boot.
Help!

Btw, I just saw that gpu fans are not spinning.

Hmm... Have you tried taking the CMOS battery out for 15 sec then back in or try doing it but without the GPU in and try onboard if available

Do you have any USB or disk with the Windows installation on it? if yes try to remove it, another thing check your boot order.
