Title: ASUS Z9PE-D8 WS + 2x E5-2690 doesn´t boot
Post by: riven on 2016-12-04, 10:48:05

So I thought, that bulding new station with ASUS Z9PE-D8 WS will be easy, but it´s horror...
I have new 2x E5-2690 cpus, 8x8 GB ECC REG DDR3 1600 memory, ASUS Z9PE-D8 WS, Corsair HX1200i psu /EVGA 850 G2 as backup/.

After 8hours of trying I was able to see bios only in begining, cpus and memory were correct displayed there.
Rest of time I tried to reorganized all, changed cpus, memory modules, psu cables, sometimes I have seen q code, but rest of time I´ve seen only
power button and reset button luminous. Pressed power button, nothing happened, sometimes q code.
I try everything, 1 cpu-1 mem module, 2cpus-2 modules, 2 psu, exchange cpu postions, but nothing helped.

There is a lot of posts with problem with this board, there is my problem, exactly:

It doesn´t boot to bios, so I can´t upgrade it.

If it's any help, you can order another bios chip. I always kept two in case newer bios failed somehow.
Can you borrow other memory sticks? Just to be sure.

so memory should be ok... I´ve just worried about temp of E5-2690. Bios showed me 60 and 50 degrees without stress,
it´s really high temp, max tem by intel is 72 degree...

Is anybody there who use E5-2690 cpus?
