I am looking for some advice with regard to my GA-Z170X-Gaming 7 board. Built a new system three weeks ago (all to spec, no OC'ing) and all was fine. Yesterday while playing a game I got a hard crash BSOD with "WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE ERROR" and had to power the cpu off. Board now just goes into a restart loop and never completes POST. Diagnostic codes vary on restart but are generally C2, C3, C4, C5 (which in the manual are listed as "Reserved", though I have seen a code 19 and a 3E) before it restarts. I get no video (from my card or on-board) and cannot get to BIOS. I have followed the trouble shooting procedure, swapped video card & power supply, tried running with one memory stick (and swapping the sticks) but no joy. Also tried CMOS reset and removing the battery to get back to defaults.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise, anyone have experience with Gigabyte's RMA process?
Specs: Gigabyte GA-Z170X-Gaming 7 (I believe the bios was f6) ;
Intel i7-6700K
G.Skill TridentZ 16 GB DDR4 3400
Samsung 850 500GB SATA III SSD
Western Digital 3 TB Green HD
EVGA GTX 980 Ti 6GB SC Gaming
