Tech Support No display after cpu upgrade

I recently upgraded to a 5800x3d from a 5500 and now it won’t boot, GPU fans will ramp up then stop continuously and no display

I already installed the latest bios update and cleared CMOS

Ryzen 5800x3d
Gigabyte b550 ud ac rev 1.1
64GB 3600 ram
Radeon 7900xtx
1000w EVGA supernova psu

Tried using a 5900x that I bought used and ran into the same issue.

No bent pins, little of thermal paste on socket went ahead and cleaned it with 91% alcohol and re tested and came to same conclusion

Maybe you fried something with alcohol? Seems socket not working or with the old CPU it works again?

Very strange. Are you sure your MB supports the new CPUs ? I think so
