Evening!
I just received a new cpu, mobo, ram, and psu. I've installed everything but when I hit the power switch everything lights up and turns off for half a second then goes off.
I've bread boarded with just the minimums, psu, cpu, ram, mobo. What I've noticed is that if I boot everything up without a cpu in the socket, everything lights up like normal. Once I install the cpu in the socket, it only boots up for half a second then instantly turns off. Is it possible I've done something to kill the cpu, is it that easy to do that to a brand new cpu? The light on the mobo that correlates to cpu fail/not detected flickers.
Parts:
Mobo: MSI H270
CPU: Intel i8600k
650 W Thermaltake PSU
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
