I has just bought this motherboard and did a number of troubleshooting steps before I wrote this. They are as follows:
-All power cords connected properly, ATX too
-Took the board out to bench test to make sure it was not a grounding issue
-Reinstalled the CPU and heat sink
-Cleared then CMOS... twice
-Checked the MEM OK, reset that as well
-Made sure Memory and Video card were in sung
-Made sure memory was in farthest slot, recommended slot, or any slot for that matter
Equipment Specs:
-Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0 MB
-Antec 650 PS
-AMD FX-8320 CPU
-EVGA GEFORCE GTX 750ti SC
-Patriot 1600 4GB memory (not my fav, going with what I could get)
-Cooler Master HAF XB EVO (case)
-1TB WD blue
This may be fruitless, but before I take the board back I would like to see if there may be other suggestions. Like I said, I did remove it from the case to make sure it was not a grounding issue, Now, my PSU does have a four prong ATX cord, actually it has two. The slot on the motherboard is for eight prong. I am not sure if that makes a difference, but from what I read it should not. Any suggestion, comments, or concerns are welcome!
