Z68 Extreme3 Gen refuses to turn on.

[MarkJohnson]

I bought this back in early April and today it locked up during boot and refused to turn back on. No lights, no fans, no beeps, no nothing.

I cleared cmos from rear panel and nothing.

I decide PSU must have died? I replace PSU and voila! It booted without issue. Ran for a couple of hours and BAM! locked up. I power down and it refuses to come back on.

I manually test both PSUs as two couldn't have died and sure enough I jump the green wire to black and Voila! the PSU comes on for both of them

Could the MB be bad? Could the CPU be bad? I wouldn't think it would be a bent pin after almost 4 months of use. Or could it?

What test could I run to determine the problem?

Well, I pulled the CPU and the pins look fine. I cleaned the MB and put the 2600K back in and still no power at all.

Time for an RMA I guess. I'll have to wait until Monday.
