First of all, I have ran through the checklist.
So I have an i7-9700k and I had a low end mobo that I bought to replace my old Z390 prime that died. I bought an asus Z370-A and assembly and etc went smoothly, but when I put the pc together, it wouldn't turn on and it would flash the VGA light. I know this Mobo isn't compatible with the CPU off the box, but I was hoping it would at least post so I could update the bios. That said, if the bios update was the issue the CPU light would flash instead, no? I reassembled everything into my old mobo and it worked. Can someone please give me a hand on what might be happening?
Asus Z370-A
CPU: I7-9700K
GPU: Nvidia RTX 2070
32 GB ram
Could inserting another CPU and update the bios fix the issue?
