So ive been slowly buying up parts over the year for a new build
Case: Thermaltake Tower 100 mini
Motherboard: Supermicro SuperO C9Z390-CG-IW 🤷♀️
CPU: i7-9700k
SSD: WD BLACK SN750 SE NVMe 1TB SSD
RAM: 2x16G CorsVengLPX DDR4 3200C16 ... bought with my kids z170 in mind to upgrade later on
PSU: EVGA 750 GQ 80 PLUS Gold PSU 750W Semi Modular Power Supply Unit
No GPU as planning to buy that way later on down the line
Firstly there isn't much on this board to refer back to so any advice appreciated. The manual has me confused to as the front panel diagram the connectors run across the 2 lane of pins rather than the length of the lanes like EVERY other board I see. On the diagram it says pins 1 - 16 instead of 9 ... these are indicated with 1 and 16 at the other end. I connected as described and nothing happens so I played around and noticed if I wire them the opposite way round I get a blue power light on my case.
The only thing that happens every time I power on is a quick flash from the boards built in LED strip but no other system LED's on the board ... I really hope my board is not dead as I cant find another so any suggestions as I'm lost 🤦♀️
Thanks
I will test everything eventually on my kids older PC when I get a chance to use it
