Help! I have a i7 engineering sample on a gigabyte z97x gaming 7 motherboard and I get a C0 Debug code error.

Mobo: Gigabyte GA-Z97X-Gaming 7
CPU: Engineering sample i7 QDEJ
GPU: NVidia Geforce GTX 1070 Founder's edition
RAM: PNY XLR8 1866mhz 8GB (2x4)
PSU: Thermaltake Smart 650W
HDD: Kingston SSDNow 300 120GB
Seagate Barracuda 2TB
Sometimes the error stays on and sometimes based on where I put the RAM it reboots with the same error. Just this mobo has had problems with this setup. Please Help.

Yeah, there are no bent pins on the socket though. I noticed that a Pentium dual core G3258 works but not the engineering sample i7.
