Motherboard and CPU. Thing still isn't working after half a tube of thermal paste so I'm pretty sure the mobo's just defective. Taking it back to microcenter tomorrow

Knowing your autistic enthusiasm for anything electronic and your delusions of mental superiority, I bet you shocked the CPU and or MOBO. I doubt they will take it back because retards often don't' wear or use the proper equipment when assembling their "ProGamer Rig." Good luck.

Because im not building computers all the time and honestly as long as you dont wear socks and you build on top of your mboard box you shouldnt have these issues


Tbh tho he honestly has no idea what hes doing and didnt even say how exactly the board is defective


He probably didnt plug in the cpu power or some dumb shit like that

The static bracelet is not to only prevent static from shocking the hardware, it prevents the hardware's natural static charge discharging in a rapid manner. Dunno. If you don't want to wear one more power to ya.

If he gooped the compound on the pins he could have shorted the fucking chip. I mean it's Ben here. It's often pretty accurate to assume the worst.

@dropdatwat what exactly is it doing

if I try to start up windows or Linux (separate drives) it instantly shuts off and won't turn on again until I turn the PSU off and on

He still could have gotten it into one of the pin holes and insulated it from the mobo.
