Hi Guys!
Basically my issue is I just got an Asus z97 pro Gamer board to use with an Intel i7 4770k, The processor was second hand and I got two MOBOs to try and use with them but they both had bent pins on the socket (Will never but stuff from this idiot again). I had someone check out the boards and the CPU to see if anything was wrong and told me the CPU is all good but the boards and broken, So I just got round to getting the Z97 Pro Gamer...

First time boot went ok I tired without a boot device to get to BIOS Make sure everything was working fine the Board went through a test and everything was ok and working. I then booted with a device (samsung Evo 250gb SSD) which booted to windows 10 which was doing a set up for new devices but then crashed. I reset the PC and started going through BIOs options and I changed the setting from Power saver or something to performance this caused the system to reboot and then it would not boot after.

Things I have done:
- Cleared CMOS (removing battery and using jumper)
- Used different RAM slots and only one module
- Tried a different power supply
- Tried on boards Graphics instead of my GTX 970 (Was working before)
- Tried with and without boot device

This is a problem that has really got to me because I got the CPU before Christmas and I just got the board for my birthday so been waiting for rather long time to have this system actually working... If anyone knows anything it would be a great help and save me £300 on buying a new i7.

Full Specs:
Intel i7 4770k
Asus Z97 Pro Gamer
EVGA Super Clocked Nvidia GTX 970
Corsair Vengeance 1866mhz RAM 8GB
Corsair RM850 850 Watt PSU
Samsung EVO 250 GB SSD
Some Toshiba 2tb HDD

The last resort is having to take apart my cousins PC to test CPU and Board... Which frankly he does not want to do so if anyone has anything at all I could try please let me know!

Edit: All error lights are on. Only LED on Mother board is SupremeFX Strip and the Standby Power LED.
