It has to be the cpu. What are the odds both boards are dead at the same time? With my luck anything is possible. I have a 3rd 1155 board at work I can try tomorrow just to be sure but I think its the cpu.Originally Posted by l0ud_sil3nc3
Sounds, looks and smells like a dead cpu, so your on the right path, just wait for the replacement
Its strange because Ive killed cpu's in the past and my experience has been fans start up and run for a bit and then it powers off. this just powers off as soon as i hit the power button. I doubt this was a golden chip so maybe I'll get one on the turnaround. Does intel have some extra warranty no questions asked deal with cpus? I saw a thread a while back about something like that. You pay extra and if something happens they replace it?
