Question Help: Intel i7-7700k not booting after upgrade.

[Tech Nate]

Hello All,

Hope someone can help with this.

Current System info: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/GpZnf9
Intel i5-7400 with a Pure Rock 2 cooler
Asus H110I-PLUS mini ITX LGA1151
16GB Ram
Zotac RTZ 2070 8GB OC Mini
600W PSU
This works with no issue.

BIOS - American Megatrends Inc. Version: 4212 Date: 24/07/2019 (latest version) Thinking of down grading the BIOS to see if that will help, if someone could advised if this is a good idea or not.

On putting the i7-7700k in, it booted to the BIOS then crashed on me after about 10s.
Now it will switch on but nothing comes on the screen, nor do I get any error sounds.
The i7-7700k is listed as a supported CPU as well for this MB.
Have already cleared the CMOS to avail.
Also taken the RAM and GPU out, disconnect the SSD’s/HDD to avail.
Have reseated the CPU/Cooler a few time just to make sure as well but no change.
All that happens is the fans come on and case lights.

Currently back online with the i5-7400 and all is okay.
I think the CPU is dead but been told it was working before. Hope someone here might know something I have done wrong or missed.

Windows and all drivers are updated as well. I do not have any Qcode or Qled indicators displayed either.

I have also post this on the r/pcmasterrace & r/intel sub Reddit's as well.

Edit: Have contact Asus as well now just waiting for them to come back to me.

The Motherboard and BIOS version seems alright. Since the issue occurs when using i7, I prefer to do RMA.
