So , I was placing a new psu in my NAS box. I took time to reconfirm the configuration of the storage devices, m.2 devices. Curious I went further to find why: when the mb first arrived there was no onboard hdmi output. Second, the board wouldn't boot a memory kit in dual channel configuration.
Long story short I kept looking and I found a bent pin on the socket intel 1200.
I've been able to straighten pins on a cpu before using a razor blade. This was my first attempt straightening a pin on a socket. It didn't work out.
The board was purchased from Newegg as open box item. Not sure if it arrived with a bent pin or not.
At least now I'm not in the dark.
Purchased the same item new with 2 day shipping.
