I'm now on my third X99 mobo, after my previous Asrock board couldn't deal with my RAM and my first one died. System doesn't post, hanging on Qcode 60 or b0. I'm assuming it's b0 as the 6 doesn't have the top 'bar' but I could be wrong. Code 60 is related to the CPU, code b0 means "runtime set virtual address MAP begin" whatever that means.

Specs are as follows:

CPU: i7 5820k
RAM: 4x4GB Corsair CMK16GX4M4A2800C16, which the manual states as being compatible

I'm at this point assuming my Gigabyte X99 board fried my CPU when it died but I'm kind of hoping I'm just missing something. Have already tried positioning the RAM in multiple positions, reseating the CPU, clearing the CMOS etc.
 
Nothing meaning no POST. With or without the GPU doesn't make a difference unfortunately, I get the same error. The GPU works fine on my old motherboard, so that's not the issue.
