Have a z170p mobo with an i5 6600k in it.

I've put an i7 7700k onto it and black screen with fans on. don't even get a bios (my monitors stay in standby)

I reset the cmos battery (took it our for 15 seconds) but nothing yet, just a boot, reset and boot again but stays on.


Help please :(

If you re-install the 6600k does the system work? Any bent pins? Motherboard power supply cable connected at the top?
