so i've just built myself a new system
motherboard is in the title
AMD FX-6300
8GB corsair 1600 ram
radeon 7870 n2GB
2TB HDD seagate
700watt PSU(in win desert fox commander iii)
the problem is the motherboard wont boot
power gets to it, i've checked and triple checked all connections
tryed to PSU with a different mobo cpu and it powers them fine, all the new parts i got are fine except for the mobo
i know it needs a BIOS update so the FX-6300 will work in it and i should be able to do it using a USB drive with the latest BIOS update using the usb bios flashbck feature to update it, but i cant, im even ment to be able to do that without even having the cpu/ram/gpu plugged in, just the PSU, but it aint working
i'd like to try everything possible before doing a RMA, but if thats my only option then i guess i'll have to do it
