Trouble with msi z370 sli plus

[ekjyoung]

Looking for help getting this thing to boot to BIOS. This is the second board I've gotten and it's doing the same thing as the first.

Breadboarded using i7-7700k, one 8 gb stick of vengeance lpx ddr4 2400hmz ram, and a working rx-730ss psu.

When I try to boot the LEDs and CPU fan spin for a fraction of a second then shut off.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

You can't use a Kabylake with that board. Try returning it and getting instead a 8th gen CPU.

MSI Z370 is LGA 1151 socket but it support 8th gen CPU. I suggest you keep this board and get 8700K CPU, it has 6 cores and 12 threads. i7 7700K (4 cores and 8 threads) is also 1151 socket so if you want to keep it, you should get Z270 mobo. Z270 can not upgrade to run 8th gen CPU.
