Hi, I recently took out my old CPU to test if an older computer was working. I put it back in my original computer after I found the old one is broken and my computer turned on but the GPU fans revved to the max and there was no video out. I took it out and found thermal compound on the bottom and tried hto clean it off before breaking the pin. I ordered a FX-6350 online that the person was unsure it worked. Today I got the CPU and placed it in the board and powered the computer on after connecting all of the appropriate power cables. It immediately did the same thing the old CPU did. Is this the new CPUs fault or is something else wrong.
Things I've tried so far:
Reseating CPU
Reseating GPU
Placing GPU in the second PCI bus (resulted in the fans returning to normal but still no video out)
1 stick of RAM at a time in different slots
No RAM
Disconnecting everything except CPU, GPU, RAM and PSU.
Cleared CMOS
Flashed latest bios through Asus Flashedback
Nothing changed the outcome except moving the graphics card to the second slot.
My system:
Mobo: Asus 970 M5A97 R2.0
New CPU: FX-6350
Old CPU: Phenom II X4 955BE overclocked to 4 GHz
GPU: Sapphire Radeon 6970 dual fan edition
RAM: PNY 4GB 1333mhz X2
PSU: LSP Ultra 650w D0911
Case: Rosewill Challenger
Any advice would be helpful. Thanks in advance.
