first boot no disaply on LED, after a bit of messing around and pulling one 8pin plug i get it too boot but stock on code 68 now.............oh crap

at the end had to reseat the CPU and that got it going

had to plug the second 8pin on a different spot on the back of the HX1000 to get it going with dual 8pins

in case someone else experienced that try reseating the CPU and RAM
(tip for the slow ones like me hahaha)
Alot of boards are picky about the amount of pressure/bowing created by the cpu mounting hardware too. If you run into no boot again, try loosening things a bit before removing.
