Ok, I apologize for the misuse of my nomenclature, no need to be a neckbeard about it, you should just help.
So I have extensively troubleshot the equipment, utilized different memory, disassembled and reassembled the parts per the manual gently and am getting a Dr. Debug 00 Code, which upon research is a defective chip & socket.

Best regards,

bmxholmes

As an additional note, guys, it's clear the OP is an inexperienced system builder.
You can not expect them to have an intricate understanding of what things are and
how they work. The simple fact that he thought he could see physically missing cores
should be enough to tell you that he needs help, in a simple to follow, step by step
format to help get the system up and running. ]]> Sat, 14 Dec 2019 17:33:02 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13032&PID=71064&title=trx40-taichi-overheats-and-dies#71064 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13032&PID=71063&title=trx40-taichi-overheats-and-dies#71063 Author: Xaltar

I think we have a case of misunderstanding here. You cannot see missing cores
on the physical CPU. You can however see missing resistors and ICs on the
underside of the CPU in the center where there are no pins. This however does
not indicate a defective or broken CPU, the substrate (CPU circuit board) is
used across multiple CPU models, some use more or less SMT components (surface
mount). A few "missing" SMT components is normal unless they appear to have
been ripped off somehow which should be easy enough to spot as it will leave
solder residue on the contact pads.

By the description it sounds to me like an improperly seated CPU, both X399 and
TR40 sockets are tricky to install the CPU into. Take a look at a youtube
tutorial on how to do it correctly. Improperly installed CPUs are probably the
number one cause of issues on this platform. ]]> Sat, 14 Dec 2019 17:29:24 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13032&PID=71063&title=trx40-taichi-overheats-and-dies#71063 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13032&PID=71061&title=trx40-taichi-overheats-and-dies#71061 Author: bmxholmes

assuming you still cant boot up your system i dont see how you'd know you got some missing cores]]> Fri, 06 Dec 2019 15:58:46 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13032&PID=70800&title=trx40-taichi-overheats-and-dies#70800 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13032&PID=70796&title=trx40-taichi-overheats-and-dies#70796 Author: cx5

actually if @bmxholmes has strike the lottery, collectors would pay a lot of money of a missing cores threadripper of recent times. Should put up a "BID". Hell AMD would pay 10 times to buy it back!!! hahahahaha]]> Fri, 06 Dec 2019 14:34:06 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13032&PID=70796&title=trx40-taichi-overheats-and-dies#70796 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13032&PID=70795&title=trx40-taichi-overheats-and-dies#70795 Author: Ray62

I can understand that it must be very frustrating getting such an expensive hardware not to work, but you should use common sense too!

There is no benefit at all if you are using "crap" and "awfull" postings and ununderstandable phrases like:

bmxholmes wrote: Did that twice, found out my threadripper was missing cores!

bmxholmes wrote: Took a picture when the chip was secured in the hinge but not yet down

Please show the picture!


Anyway, if that hardware is not working it is a clear RMA case.

What are you talking about....
I would join this forum to be trolled?
