Hi,
I recently purchases this board and for some reason the fans are not spinning. There is no sign of life other than that I know the motherboard is receiving power because some lights on my GPU light up notifying when 6+2 directly from the PSU to the GPU are not connected. The board is sold as a 1151 compatible board, but upon checking the compability list I saw that my I5-9400 is not in the list. Is it really not compatible with that CPU and is that a possible reason the cpu fans are not spinning? |

Yes, the 9400 won't run on that board, same number of pins, different pinout. You
will need a 6000 or 7000 series CPU. |

Ok, so with that particular CPU type the cpu fan will not spin either right?
Trying to figure out whether it is just the faulty CPU which I can replace or that the board itself has a problem. I got the -9400 in there now, I guess if I get a compatible CPU and put that in all should work (as in inserting the -9400 doesn't ruin the pins?). |

The 9400 is not compatible and has a different pinout so yes, it is most likely
why the fans are not spinning up. You will need a 6000 or 7000 series CPU. While 8000 and 9000 series use the same physical socket they are not pin compatible. |
