Hello, first post.
I bought the MB mentioned in the title with an AMD Ryzen 9 5950x. After the build I powered up and got no video. The white LED lit up, indicating VGA issues.
I connected the monitor via the HDMI video out. I then tested using a video card and video came up just fine. I know that the mother board's integrated video will work only with processors with the X suffix which mine has. I can use the video card output, but would like to know why I am not getting any video from the MB's HDMI out. Does anyone have any suggestions what I can try to troubleshoot this issue?
I am thinking of removing the heat sink to verify that the chip says 5950x, although it is clearly marked on the box.
Thanks for your time and assistance. Saga
Edit: I looked for 5950 processors and found none. Is there such an item (5950 without the X) ?

Dang, that's the second time I got it wrong! Only down side is I paid for video out hardware on the MB for a uP that does not have integrated graphics. Luckily, I have an extra video card I can use for this build.
Thanks for clearing this up, I appreciate it. Saga
