[SOLVED] New Motherboard beep codes

[Zyfore]

Hey everyone. I had a motherboard failure recently and had to get another one. Decided to upgrade the processor too.
Motherboard: EVGA x299 ftw k
CPU: Intel i9-10940x
RAM: Viper DDR4 PC4-24000 4x8GB 3000 MHz
Error code: dF with 3 beeps once power initiated.

Power is getting to all fans. Nothing on monitor. Any help is appreciated.

you will need to update bios to support 10xxx cpus by using older cpu or ask nicely in local shop (costs money there)

Thanks Kerberos. I have the processor I'm upgrading from: i7-5820k. Will that do?

5xxx cpu wont work
u could also return mainboard and get X299X version, which is same x299 chipset, but it has bios support for 10xxx cpu from get go
