Title is a little misleading, i know that the 1600 doesnt have an igpu but after i finished building my pc (havent got the gpu yet) i just put it on to see if it would boot/post, it booted up fine with a few hiccups but i mostly sorted it out. Looking at the ez debug led i noticed that the light stayed on for the cpu and then stopped and the led was then lit on the vga led and remains like that. So is the cpu damaged or is it just the pc 'looking' for an igpu and then looking for a 'normal' gpu.

I'd assume if it's anything like my ASUS P55 board, it's failing the POST because there's no video device. Likely the CPU is fine, it just won't go any further until there's a GPU inserted.

On my P7P55D, the debug LEDs flash in sequence as the BIOS tries to initialise the thing they represent, then turn off once the initialisation was successful, so you can see what it was trying to do when it got stuck, so I believe (at least on ASUS boards I've dealt with. Not sure about yours, you didn't specify what motherboard you have) the LEDs should all flash once or twice, then go out. Of course yours won't be able to initialise the video adapter since you know, there isn't one...
