CPU led, interesting. CPU failures are pretty rare but not unheard of.

 

Has this system worked in the past or are these new components?

 

I also have an ASUS board, sometimes it reports RAM issues as CPU errors so I would not say it's 100% the CPU yet.

 

How many ram sticks are you using? I know you said you tried reseating the RAM, but can you try again now that we are getting different codes? I you have multiple sticks can you try using only one in all the slots and then try the other one in all the slots?

not new, got both cpu+board for free because the guy thought they were broken, ill try the ram thing, im using 2, 8gb sticks

Yeah I'm starting to think the CPU or motherboard is dead.

 

These error codes do not make any sense.

the dram light is also on now, so might be ram compatibility

You'd need other ram sticks in order to check. Do you have any others?

Okay good luck, let me know if you get it to work. Worst case you can use it in another system in the future.
