Hi everyone, I am sure this questioned has been asked hundreds of times but i can't find a thread.I am pretty sure that I fried my mobo yesterday when i moved my pc. The computer turns on then 25 seconds later restarts by itself. Their is no display from the mobo or gpu and there is no power to the usbs. anyway my friend has an extra board that is z77. will my z87 haswell 4670k work in this mobo. If it does what would be the draw backs when compared to a z87 board.

Before replacing what would be a perfectly good gaming system for the next several years, try one thing first. Get some canned air, take the whole computer apart, blow out everything, put it all back together. Reseat everything- ram chips, power supply, vid card, hard drive connections, all power connections and the MB itself- make sure no screw fell loose and is causing it to ground. A last thing to try is remove the CPU heatsink, clean it good and reapply thermal paste.

The Z77 board is LGA socket 1155 and will not work with a LGA 1150 socket processor.
Unplug your PC from the wall, remove and reinstall the memory and video card, unplug and plug back in all power cables to the motherboard and try your PC again.
