Question Just Built a computer doesn't display anything

[Bubbles825]

Just built a new computer and it wont display anything like the monitor doesn't detect anything its not like just a black screen still on its completely nothing

I'm also so sure i have tried everything just hoping that i could get some second opinions before scrapping this and trying a new CPU and MB

Cpu: i7-9700k
MB: Z370 AORUS Ultra Gaming (rev. 1.0)
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V 64 GB (4 x 16 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory
GPU: NONE
Storage: Seagate IronWolf NAS 8 TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Hopefully a boot drive SSD: Samsung 980

Z370 doesn't support 9th gen out of the box - unless the motherboard box had something like '9th gen ready' printed on it or something?
On the other hand, B365 and Z390 do.

They released above mentioned boards for 9th gen. Previous 8th gen chipsets such yours supports 9th gen with a bios update. Unlikely bios has been updated since you're experiencing exactly the symptoms a non supported cpu would do.

Ask a local pc repair shop if they can help you flash your motherboard. With any luck they'll have an 8th gen cpu on hand.

So i will have to put an 8th gen intel cpu in there in order to do a bios update there is no way to do it with a 9th gen in it?

Without a bios flashback switch - which that board doesn't have - no.
