Hi everybody,

Just recently purchased a new combo from micro center. 7600k, gigabyte z170 g3, crucial ddr4 3000.

Installed everything, turned it on. Fans, lights, and nothing else. Black screen. Checked all the usual suspects. Reseated power, checked RAM sticks and slots. Only thought is the Mobo or CPU is DOA. Odd thing is, when I plug the computer in and flip the power switch, the power led turns on, yet I haven't started the computer yet. I'm a bit confused as this is the first time I've ever had an issue directly after installation. Something I could be missing here?

Found out the issue while returning the motherboard. Didn't know the gigabyte 170's need a BIOS update to use the new kabylake processors. Grabbed a 270 instead and we're good to go.
