I just got my new AMD rig and am still waiting for my ASUS R9 280x to arrive
on the meantime I put my old graphics card on the 9800GT and the monitor keeps blinking
I connected everything as supposed to

any ideas
 
Solution
The CPU is supported then. Is the 8 pin power plug connected to the motherboard? If yes, then I suggest taking the board outside the case, reseating the CPU (checking for bent pins also), installing the stock CPU fan and starting the board (put it on its box) with only CPU and CPU fan installed. See if still red CPU led.

ok sorry for the delay first of all
I took off the cpu heatsink along witht the cpu and i noticed there was some thermal pastre that was stuck on the site of
the cpu on the pins so i took a needle and slowly slowly i cleaned the pins
I then cleaned the cpu base and the heatsink base with pure alcohol. After that i added thermal paste in the dot fashioned way and now everything works marvelously!!!!!

Thank you very much for the help and the idications. I found them very helpful!! keeo up the good job!!
