    i5 9600k incompatibilty

    But my question was if my board is using an older version, is that how it should behave? Not boot at all? Not any error messages on the screen? I'm only asking because I'm afraid of the cpu being faulty as I have installed an Artic Cooler with low skills in my hands.

    Hi guys, I have a i5 9600k recently bought on a Z370P, but I forgot to update the bios, now nothing happens when I boot it, I was thinking that I can update the bios straight after but I think there's no other way than getting an older version cpu, update the bios and try again? Thanks

    Video card for my Q8200

    Many thanks @clutchc My PSU apparently doesn't have a PCIE connection, 6+2 pins, so I have to buy another one. All I can see from pictures and specs, is that 1050Ti, has a 6x2 pin(12 pins total) connection, will the normal 8 pin (6+2) connection power it up? Many thanks
