Problem I'm having : Not sure. Computer comes on, all fans turn normally, green led on motherboard is on, blue light flashes at bottom left corner of board. Everything seems to get power. Ram in this computer worked. Tried it in another computer built identical to this one. RAM beeped letting me know theres a problem.Cleaned it with an eraser.Put it back in its own motherboard it wouldn't beep. Yet computer would boot up,but no display showed on monitors.Took video card out checked it in other computer video worked.

I tried all hardware in the computer identical to one giving me the issue except for processors.( I don't feel comfortable messing with them) and now I'm at a loss as to what the problem is. What would cause the red lights on motherboard in between processor and heat sink to come on indicating a problem?

Nothing has been changed in this computer.Nothing new added. When computer would seem to boot up, everything lighting up, all fans spining, the red lights between cpu and heat sink would come on stay solid.Sometimes it's only one red light then others two.They will stay solid or flash. No beeps though at all come from computer. Screen shot enclosed .
 
Solution
"How could I test to see if it"s cpu related aside from using another working cpu?' It's the only one I know with regular means.
"Being that it's most likely the CPU and system is about as old as the 480 Fermi, would buying a used processor be the way to go and if so could you recommend a reputable vendor that sells used i7960 used processors?"
I'd firstly make sure that it's the CPU. Other than ebay… maybe local pc repair shops.
