    This is the owner of the rig, thanks Greg for all the work you did and reaching out to intel. The new system booted right up when I replaced the CPU, intel gave a full refund and was able to get the same CPU cheaper on Newegg. I also was able to get a 4090 at retail price so all is good now!

    Fun fact: Asus tells you what bios is flashed on the board. The last four numbers that follow the serialnumber (sticker between ram slots and cpu socket usually) represent the biosversion currently running on the board. Through the support page you can find out if the biosversion supports the cpu you want to use.

    This is probably one of your most informative vids for people who are building for the first time. It's all issues you never see on a build video. When something goes wrong with somebodys first build this provides an excellent 1st step for trouble shooting.

Absolutely love your videos on a regular basis that makes one forget about all the issues that are going on around the world. Thank you for your work Greg and thank you for being you.

    I've watched pretty much every episode of FOF from the very beggining and i will continue cause 1 like that you're helping people and 2 as someone whos not afraid to take apart my pc considering i built it. This playlist gives me knowledge of potential issue i may run into in the future or just trying to help someone else out. I helped a streamer out who did a platform switch and she built the pc and the first thing she said was that the pc didnt power on. The first thing i suggested was did she plug the front panel headers in and sure enough she didnt and the pc booted right up lol. So its just funny how sometimes its the smallest issue.

    Greg, something you might want to mention in future videos. When the computer is powered on for the first time it can up to 90 seconds for a POST as the BIOS needs to be trained while it determines the CPU and RAM.
    I know in this case it was never going to POST as the BIOS was out of date relative to the CPU generation. I have seen some people think their computers are bricked because they did not wait long enough for the BIOS to sort it's self out.
