Hello, I'm curious about your CPU issues. Is there a Linux tool you can run to check for errors? Prime95 could be useful. Your new mainboard came from an RMA, and your PC won't power on at all—seems like the CPU might be faulty. The CPU light is red, RAM is yellow, it runs for about 30 seconds, then shuts down with no reset. You have no other testing options.

Prime95 isn't a true benchmark when your CPU is struggling. Cinebench works better in such cases. Consider trying r23 or r20, then share your results so I can verify if they match expectations. It could simply be the increased detail in system specifications.

R23 is significantly lighter than prime.

i'm not saying its heavier than prime95 I said that there was a score system so you could monitor and see how your cpu compares to an identical system
