brught new parts.

[inyourmindz]

hello everyone. So i brught a new motherboard (tuf z370 plus-gaming) and a i8400 with 2x8 gb 2666 mhz ballistix sport gaming ram. so i took my computer appart ( i have build computers befor so i know how to take it out and put in the new) after putting in everything i wanted to boot it up to see if it posts. After turning it on it did not post i looked into the computer and noticed that i havent put the grapich cars properly in so i pushed it in without turning of the computer (brainfart). and after 1 and a half hour of trouble shooting still no picture on the screen not from onborad grapich or from the grapich card. i have tryed another powersupply 750w ( dont know the name ) and i cleared cmos with connecting the 2 pins as the manual said and tryed clearing it by taking out the 3v battery. 

 

what do i do now ? did i break it cuz of the breafart with the grapich card ?

if you cannot post then you should be checking your memory and CPU more than the graphics at that point.

Try 1 stick of ram. If that doesn't boot try the other channel. If nothing still, repeat with the other ram stick.

 

Your motherboard may also have a memok button. Push that as well.

Done that does not work om starting to Think that the motherboard or cpu is broken:)

If you just installed the CPU, you should make sure there isn't anything on the contacts and that none of your pins are bent or have anything on them.  Otherwise if you have another CPU or motherboard to try, this might be the time as it seems like the board may have been broken if you cannot even deliver power to it with a secondary Power Supply.

Glad to hear the fix was found.  Do you know if you accidentally bent it after taking off the plastic shield for the motherboard socket pins, or did it seem to come that way?  You'd have a valid gripe with your motherboard company if it came new in box with a went pin.  Just a thought.
