Definitely a bent pin as noted above. I would also recommend connecting to the 4-pin connection as well.

Ok I’ll connect the 4pin as well now.

In regards to a bent pin what’s the best way to sort that

It’s a brand new Mobo should I just send it back?

Thanks

Also in regards to ram I had Corsair Vengence 3600mhz Pro RGB

I was told to buy 3200mhz by the repair guy so I brought 4 x 8gb of that I’m now wondering do I need the 3200mhz and was the 3600mhz compatible the whole time.

A large sewing needle can be used to bend, very carefully, back into position.

The warranty may not cover user damage. That is likely what they would consider it.

Ok, thanks. Do you think this is the issue?

The bent pins? Yes, very likely.

They can be fixed. You just have to be careful and take your time. Small nudges at a time. Gentle, but firm.

Lots of light and if you have one a desk mounted lighted magnifier on a boom arm.

I’ve contacted Amazon and they’ve agreed to send me a new one and return this one. Coming 21st January.

Hoping it will be the case of just swapping it over.

Do you know if that 3600mhz corsair ram should work on that mobo as I brought another 4 sticks of 3200mhz I’ll send it back if I don’t need it

Strange one as it runs fine on the 1 stick plays games the lot. Add one more stick of ram and it won’t boot.
