Re: My Ryzen 5 2600 doesn't work with my Asus GTX 780 DirectCU 2
I have the same dilemma.
I wanted to pair a GTX Titan Gen1 (6GB) (OEM Design) with an MSI X370 Pro Carbon (updated via APU to recent BIOS) and a Ryzen 5 2600. It was not working.
So I thought, let's take an X470 Board (in my case ASRock X470 Master SLI) as it should rule out incompatibility to Pinnacle Ridge (Ryzen 2600, 2700).
Again, it doesn't work.
Facts:
The GPU is now back on the old AM3 setup with FX CPU and working fine.
Raven Ridge and Summit Ridge (Ryzen 1000 series and Ryzen 2200/2400g CPUs) are working fine.
Pinnacle Ridge in combination with nVidia Generation 800 series and before does not boot (VGA undedetected as per the board beep or led)
The reseller of the hardware pieces was doing a test run today and as a matter of fact they tried with several components (different ram, different Ryzen 1000 and 2000 series on several boards (B350, X370, X470) and the results were clear:
All older generations of Nvidia GPUs (800 downwards), which they tried did not work, 900 series and 1000series GPUs do work though.
As I don't have the money to also buy a new GPU nowadays I am considering of cancelling my purchase in its entirety, as I would not shift to intel, nor buy a new GPU.
It's interesting, how this could not have been tested? There will be plenty of people with such older generations GPU, which would like to swap it over to a nice 2000 series Ryzen config.
Hope it helps and that there is a fix soon!
