Asrock X370 killer motherboard failing to post

[erosion139]

I have an Asrock 370 killer motherboard that I believe is the culprit for failing to boot randomly. It would post after about 5 tries. It is paired with an R5 1600x, 16gb of tridentZ RGB 2400Mhz RAM and a GTX 1080 EVGA. Its less than a week old, I have also used other GPU's and the same problem persists.

Any particular reason you think it's the mobo?
Are you overclocking anything? cpu? memory? gpu?

There is no overlock on the CPU at all same with the RAM. The reason is because when I reset the CMOS it would boot right away without issue. After a few hours after that it starts doing it again. GPU also has no OC.

Have you updated your bios? If it's an older board it might only kind of support your cpu

Yeah, update BIOS first, if that doesn't work, RMA is the cure.

My bios is the latest, updated as they instructed. I really wish there was a dr. debug on this mobo so I could see whats happening.

Try switching your memory from 1/3 position into 2/4. Just to try before you go rma option,
