Hi,

I recently built my pc and i'm having problems as the motherboard keeps beeping 5 times which I have researched, it's stating that there is a problem with my CPU. I would like some advice before I start to send it back, as there could be just a minor problem that can solve the problem.

The setup I am running are as follow;

I7 6700k
Gigabyte GA-Z170-GamingK3-EU Mobo
4 GB x4 DDR4
Water cooler for cpu
GTX 1060
PCU 850w

I really don't want to send it back, but if I need to I will.

Kind regards,
Fozza
 
Solution
Check the cpu socket to see there is any bent pin(s) or not. And try again to boot the PC with only one stick RAM too, make sure reseat it. Also reseat the water cooler too.
