Hi, I'm new to PC building and I'm having a rough time of it. I'm upgrading an existing custom built Pc I bought from a friend.
Currently my PC has the Asus Hero maxium VII Hero, 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 Ram 1600mhz . i7 4790k and GTX 980TI Extreme.
I ordered the new Asus Strix z490-E motherboard, 16GB(2x8GB) DDR4 3600mhz Ram and intel i7 10700k cpu. I planned on upgrading other components later on.
My issue is when I put together the the new motherboard, Ram and CPU I could not get my system to boot. First I got an A2 Q code but afterwards managed to get into the BIOS with a CPU Fan error alert and I could not boot into windows. In the Bios the system was definitely recognizing the harddrives so I am unsure on what the issue is?
My housemate tested the motherboard in his computer and he managed to get into windows but had some issue getting his Radeon R7 Graphics to work with it. (Not sure if AMD is compatible with this motherboard)
What should I do?
