I tried to use an I5 3470 with this motherboard. All looked well but when I tried to power on, no power. No fan spin, no POST, nothing. Anyone happen

Sounds like a power supply issue. Make sure that the header for the powerswitch is connected right to the motherboard.

i am assuming you have a core i5, this is an ivy bridge chip. same prob i had. the msi board will not work with an ivy chip, only sandy. only way to use the board is post with a sandy, then install the ivy. I went thru MSI, foxconn, and gigabyte MBs all with the same problem. i RMAd them. it is their fault not informing ppl of this. Good Luck to you.

Make sure the PC is not defective and that all cables are plugged into the board. Disconnect all non essentials from the mobo....only leave RAM. CAN and CO Fan. Power on to see if it POST. Also make sure PSU us set to correct voltage of 110 and not 220

Regardless of cpu, when power is turned on it runs linked components. Sounds like a possible power source problem.

Sorry, it wont work because you need LGA 1150, which is like the number of pins on your cpu, and that motherboard only has LGA 775.

It's possible the motherboard just simply doesn't can't route enough power to it. I had the same issue with my Dell Vostro. I eventually had to get a power supply with an auxiliary port so that it could connect directly to the card rather power it through the mobo.

I haven't tried it, but amazon emailed me thinking I could answer your question, so by the time I noticed that you weren't asking about the same CPU I put in this mobo that I got, it was too late. So at least I'll throw in my 2 cents worth. It's the same socket type, I don't see why it shouldn't work....

Hi, that CPU worked with that main PCB. So far all of my system work well. ThanksTung

The whole brand is discontinued!? That's a shame. I am unsure if it will work, I purchased this with a newer processor and motherboard, and I wouldn't say I am an expert.

I bought this with a haswell dual core (going to upgrade later) and it worked for me out of the box. I believe my processor is a Haswell refresh since I bought it maybe not even a month ago. Hope this helps. Love this mobo!

Yes, I have this board, but with an AMD 8-core CPU. I had problems getting it to read due to the complex BIOS of the board. Make sure the last 4 digits of your motherboard serial number matches your BIOS version. The final fix for getting it to read was removing the CPU and CMOS battery for a minimum 5 minutes (as directed by ASUS) and then after the systems boots, adjust the BIOS clocking from 1600MHZ to 1866MHZ.

It isn't listed on the support list but there is technically no reason it shouldn't. The board has solid VRM and handles high overclocks well. Those are Piledriver CPUs too. They're the same as the 8xx0 series so it should boot if you dropped it in. I'd give ASrock a call or write in to check.

You should return it! Mine worked right out of the box. Make sure you have it in the right port. Try one of the other E ports. It may depend on your motherboard, some of the older ones don't work well with these type of cards... good luck.

Sorry Frank. I'm still waiting for the CPU. I ordered this M/B and the 20th Anniversary Intel CPU. Haven't got the CPU in yet so have not fired up this board.

This item failed to work with my system. It is possible this is more compatible with an Intel processor/motherboard! I tried different slots on my board and had the same results....System seized or crashed.

I would not be able to exactly respond to that because I use a asus z87 pro motherboard and I do not understand what the problem with the gigabyte motherboards and this psu were having...I would check on google and I am sure if you look into some more recent forums and or threads you will get your answer. I will even take a gander seeing as I have the day off and then I will get back to you about when I find out about the motherboards.

Normally the MOBO have a specific list with all processors supported! Just find the list and check the processor.

I used this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231589 I didn't actually have much luck with this board (I'm assuming that's because it was open box though.) Are you manually clocking or RAM or just using the X.M.P.? My board was fine using the X.M.P. settings.

I had no display on my NV53. Before replacing I booted my PC up with a external monitor attached. It worked, so I knew it was my screen and not the motherboard. I replaced it. Did you try that?

1) did you make sure the heat sink was applied properly? what kind of temps are you getting @ bios when you reboot. 2) power supply: how old? what kind of wattage? 3) Have you tried doing any other intensive tasks like gaming or running a test app like SuperPi? Does it shut down then?
