Question Problem after installing a new CPU

[vindcomputer12]

So, I have a computer with 8GB of 1600MHZ Ram. Both sticks are 4GB 1600mhz. I have the Gigabyte H61M DS2 R2 Rev 1.0 Motherboard with Pentium G2030 R 3.0GHZ Cpu Dual Core. Recently, I bought an I5-3470 for my computer. When I installed it, it gave me a black screen. I tried removing CMOS battery but It didn't seem to work. At this point, I'm very confused about what to do also whenever I boot the PC with the I5-3470 it actully heats up, so it's making me think that the processor is fine. It's probably another problem. Also, my motherboard supports 1333MHZ ram but yeah it downclocked those 1600mhz to 1333mhz. Please help me guys

Ivy bridge support needs F4 bios version. Change processors again if you didn't update prior.

It's BIOS for a different board.
Gigabyte H61M DS2
vs
Gigabyte H61M DS2 R2

Gigabyte H61M DS2 R2 - would have B75 chipset and support Ivy bridge out of the box with F1 BIOS version.

Oops sorry OP. Thanks Sky.

Bios update is out of the question then. I'm not sure what else to suggest. Sky, you have anything?

What is a "Pentium G2030 R ?
Is it installed in some sort of proprietary motherboard?

If it should work, remove the processor and carefully inspect the cpu socket for damaged pins. It is all to easy to damage a pin if you needed to smoosh the chip around to get it seated.

Pentium G2030 (R) 3.00GHZ Dual Core. There is no dents on the processor also I have the B75 motherboard. It comes out with the latest update for ivy bridge support

Duh! The R stands for registered trademark.
My bad.

I am talking about the pins in the motherboard cpu socket.
If they are damaged in the slightest way the results are unpredictable.
