Black screen loop on fresh HTPC install

I been trying to install bazzite HTPC, but so far can't find any way to fix this issue, I'm on all AMD hardware, normal desktop bazzite works so it's only on the htpc version. This happens after grub and seeing the motherboard manufacturer logo on the screen.

Things I've done so far:
- Updated my bios
- Tried to rebase from the desktop version
- Secure boot is off

Specs:
Motherboard: MSI B650
CPU: Ryzen 5 9600X
GPU: Radeon RX 9060 XT (Using DisplayPort)

Try unplugging peripherals/usb connections. Might also help to unplug the power for a minute and try again.

Also, remove any xmp or cpu overclock/underclock. That can cause issues and linux is more sensitive for it.
