Asrock z97 extreme wont post. Even tried breadboarding and hear no beeps. Tried new power supply as well. I went through all of the standard troubleshooting steps as well. This is with G.Skill ripjaws x DDR3 1600 f3-12800CL10D-16GBXL. they arent on this list: http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Z97%20Extreme4/?cat=CPU
Is this the problem? I plugged headphones in to the on board headset slot because I have no case speaker and hear no beeps, is it supposed to play through there? Fairly inexperienced with building and its getting really frustrating not being able to get this to work.
Also, can you see BIOS through the DisplayPort on the motherboard? Or is HDMI/VGA needed?
Any help is greatly appreciated
