I am really lost here. I have a computer with a i5-8600K in it. I recently went to go upgrade it to a 9900K. The first MOBO was a ASRock H310M-HDV, with CPU and everything working fine. Turned off the computer, removed cooler, removed CPU, put in new CPU, went to boot, no dice. Tried clearing CMOS, no dice. Tried new PSU, and reseating everything, and also jumping power button manually, no dice. Decided new CPU was dead and put the old 8600 back in, just to find out that was no longer booting as well either. Tried all the steps above again and could not get the PC to boot. Nothing spins, nothing lights up, the only thing you hear is a click from the power supply. Decided that somehow maybe the MOBO died, so went ahead and ordered a new MOBO. New mobo arrived today(Gigabyte H310M-A), dropped the 9900 in, Same thing. no lights, no fans, just a click from the PSU. Put the 8600 in, same result. Change RAM, PSU, and reseat, same thing. I am lost.
Is it possible that the 9900 killed the mobo and the mobo killed the 8600? I just dont know what to do at this point. I have replaced so many parts and the fans wont even spin. I want to say both CPU's are dead but as of 2 days ago the CPU was working fine until it went to upgrade.
