New build--Asus DOA

[fbm211]

So I finally got everything together today,the asus P8Z77-V, i7 3770k, Noctua DH-14, Gskill ARES memory 8gig kit only to get no post.
Them memory led stayed lit and after pushing the switch to get it blinking and run its test ,after 30 seconds it would stay lit again.So I imagine its a memory problem.I installed a pair of my viper II memory that I know works and had the same problem..NO POST.....So i had to dissasemble it and go back to my MSI P55-GD65/Lynnfield 2700 system.And it work fine as I am here to rant.I did try the ARES in this rebuild and it failed to post also so I not only have to RMA the mobo but also the memory.DAMN.

I have never recieved a bad mobo or memory----ever.......THIS SUCKS.

Just RMA it. No big deal. Happens pretty frequently with PC components.

Yep, just RMA the dead components.

I would go through whatever retailer you bought it from before going to ASUS or G.Skill, will be much faster.
