I've got one too. The flames were real.

I know its not LTT, but it's still a tech meme

Just going back to AMD. RIP

I'm the third owner of the motherboard.

I believe i found the problem, and I don't know how I'm going to get my self out of this one. http://imgur.com/6U5Psn7 2 bent pins.

Clearing CMOS did nothing, and I don't have another CPU lying around.

Computer powers on, fans spin up for about 5 seconds, no video is displayed and then shuts off. Goes in this loop until I unplug the system. I think it has something to do with the BIOS, but I could be wrong. Thanks.

It seemed to turn on fine when I took the cooler off and only applied pressure with my finger. I think I need to get the retention plate.

I don't know anyone who has an lga1155 CPU

Couldn't find any bent pins

Ok

What?

If it's any help, I have an ASRock Z75 pro 3. And an i5 3570k

Steam: peterino55. I'll add you back as soon as I can get my pc up and running.

Just got a new board because my friend gave it to me after he wiped the bios. I bout another chip, and I can't get it to boot. He also left out the CPU retention plate, but I tightened my cooler extra hard. I press the power button, and fans spin up, and then turn off. I've tried clearing cmos, and if I spam that, it will continue to spin fans, but no video will output. I don't think RAM is the problem either, because I've tried every slot/combo of slots. Do you guys think I got a faultly bios chip, or is it something else, please help me. I'm pulling my hair out and I'd like to get my system to boot. I've already posted one topic, but I didn't get any usefull information from it. I hope this post will be different.

Still not working. I have tried everything.

Didn't do anything.
