4790k

Hi, I've bought a used 4790k to replace my 4670k. With 4790k it cannot post and no error code is displayed on Motherboard. Only the vent's spinning. Motherboard is Biostar Hi-Fi Z87X 3D. With 4670k works just fine. I have read that with Asus motherboards with similar problems the solution lies...

I used the Rockit Cool 88 delid kit and everything went smoothly. I applied thermal grizzly, put the IHS back on with the provided guide tool (I did not re-glue the IHS back on) and then popped it back into my system. The MB turns on but I get post code 'C'. I double checked the EPS power...
