Does anyone have information on this motherboard?

[Draco420]

I bought this motherboard from eBay and I notice it was listed has untested and it Boots loops on error code 60 but when I look up information about this motherboard nothing about it exists. Gigabyte GA-x299-Gaming 7

Not the Aorus x299-gaming 7 they have different ports on the motherboard and layout.

Plus Reddit was zero help and call me a troll.

The only last info I have on this motherboard is the eBay seller claims he bought it from bulk and knows zero info on it. will refused to tell me about it. Again I need to make this clear. Its not a Aorus x299-gaming 7 if you look at the board layout and my board they don't like the same at all and the solder points are different. I'm not a troll I'm looking for info on the mother and even documents and drivers for the motherboard.

i.e. he sold you a prototype. This is most likely one of the older Gaming 7 design that was then deemed not good enough.

 

As for the boot loop, are you using a newer LGA2066 CPU? Since it's a prototype, it likely only supports the first bunch of X299 CPUs released like the i9-7900X.

 

Spoiler

Q2'17 ones are more likely to work than Q3'17 ones, pretty sure not newer X299 CPUs than these

That might make better sense now you say that cause I own a i7-9800x CPU so let me see if I can get the first line up of cpus to get this board setup but I had a gut feeling it was a Prototype board from the looks of it. Cause error 60 for a gigabyte board I believe is a ram problem.

Oh yea that's an engineering/prototype board alright. Those XDP_CPU ports are for debugging. You wouldn't get those on a retail board.
