Re: New Build, No POST said by Kilroy: rusdi  - There is no way the CPU overheads in a fraction of a second. No way it goes from 75 degrees Fahrenheit to over 158 degrees in less than a minute, much less the second it is powered up. If it did Intel should get into the hot plate business.
Haven't done it since the P4 days, but even then a CPU would not clear POST before thermal checking. Given the added density, yes I could see it in that short amount of time. | | |

That's because it CAN and WILL go that high, that fast if the HSF isn't properly attached and contacting the top of the CPU correctly!
Not trying to be argumentative here, since this obviously isn't the problem, it was just a suggestion as a place to start looking.
Hope you find the trouble. Good luck!
