Hello, my new cpu arrived this morning, it's a i5 7600,
I put it in with the stock intel heatsink,
Turned the psu on and pressed the power button;
Fans spin up, various leds turn on, mobo le turns on, but absolutely dead on screen, an after 10-20 seconds it just shuts off and turns on again until i switch off the PSU.
What i have done:
-checked cpu compatibility (its compatible)
-removed everything but cpu, cpu fan and graphics card (gtx 1050),
-removed ram, swapped it with old ram, switched slots, and tried only 1 ram stick at once in both slots,
-reset the CMOS by removing the battery,
-reset CMOS with a jumper wire i had laying around from my Arduino.
The first time i built the pc i had this same exact problem, but it was just the ram not plugged in properly, and as i said i checked the ram is in properly this time.
I sold the old cpu (i3 6100) so i cant test it.
HHDs don't turn on, the hhd activity leds on front of the pc dont show any form of life.
I will be eternally grateful if you guys can help me.
