[SOLVED] Faulty CPU?

[Mateo116]

Hi all. There is something wrong with my pc -> died 😂 Can anyone tell me what the... is happend? I already disconnected every thing. Only mobo and cpu left. Without CPU motherboard looks ok, but when I pług in cpu it Goes into boot loop. Here are two videos (with and without CPU) how it looks:

Motherboard: asus maximus vii hero
CPU: Intel i7 4790k
Cooler removed just before I did this video. Anyway system won't wake up.

GPU cooler is not a cooler "came with card". It's replace with bigger one (arctic extreme for GPU) . I want to keep light so Put windforce led to new cooling but its not perfectly straight 😃.

Is it any way to check mobo is faulty?

Besides using a different CPU, I can't really think of any. But I'd assume both the motherboard and cpu are equally difficult to replace with a known working one at this point, since Haswell is so old.

Only with a known good CPU, which is a risk because a bad board can damage that CPU as well. Better off testing the CPU in a known good board, it wouldn't break anything. That said based on the age it may be hard to come by. May be time to just consider an upgrade.

Thank you for your help. That's really useful information. You are right, it's time for upgrade.
