I recieved all my parts today, i ran the setup outside the case and the cpu fan turned on but it wasn't posting. There were no beeps either, I removed the ram from the mobo and tried again, but it still did not beep.
My components :
i5 4690k
gtx 970
evga 750 watt 80+b psu
b85m-ds3h-A gigabyte motherboard
So far the only thing i found was that the b85 mobos need a bios update to be able to use haswell processors (the i5 4690k in my case)
But I bought it brand new so I'm not sure if its the mobo or not.
The psu had excellent ratings, so im not sure that it's the issue.
The only thing I didn't try was reset the cmos, because it's a brand new mobo and I don't know if that would be the problem because it's new.
As far as i've seen, there is no led light on the mobo itself.
At the moment I'm looking for insight on what I should do, Should I buy a new mobo or is there something easy that I can do to fix this? I have no spare 1150 cpus to use on this mobo other than the i5.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
