I just upgraded from an i5 4670k to a i7 4790k and tried to boot up the computer, but despite the fans turning on, the GPU lighting up with its fans on, the CPU fan going, nothing is put on my screens and nothing in the USB ports is lighting up or working.
I have no idea what I’ve done wrong here, but I could really use some help.
Here’s the steps that I took to put in the new CPU when I got home:
find package on doorstep, unpackage and put on anti-static wristband
unscrew 212 evo and pop it off, cleaning the bottom of it to prepare for new cpu
remove old cpu
insert new cpu
apply thermal paste
sit 212 eve on top and screw back in
tilt computer right side up and turn on
and here we are
I have:
z87 pro mobo
3 monitors
gtx 970 2gb
intel i7 4790k
16gb of ram
