Ok guys help.
I'we bought brand new components
MSI krait gaming z370
Psu corsair rm650x
I7 8700
2x 8gm gskill trident z 3000mhz
1070ti gtx
When I went to put parts together pc didnt post...I put ram in 3 and 4 slot...pc boots but tells me to put ram in dimm 2 for optimum performance.
Since I've had simmilar problem before I lifted cpu and saw a bend pin. Since I've ordered parts from store 500km from me, I decide to try to unbind it myself. Didn't work, so I take it to local store where he said that he can try to unbind it but it may broke it also. I told him to try, and bind broke. Since he also repairs mobile phones etc. He solders pretty good under microscope with some micro powder or something like that...something really small :)
After seeing his work those pins look pretty good.
We put cpu use HIS psu pc boots with ram in dimm slot 2.
I got home put mbo in case...put cooler...nothing..no signal at all.
Tomorrow I take it again to him he check under microscope and clean a bit etc. We put cpu and HIS psu...all ok...bios appears.
I get home try all again...nothing no sign.
I go to him we use HIS psu start cpu all ok...this time I check my brand new corsair rm650x psu and it turn out to be dead.
I borrow his psu take it home, mbo lights up and light down...light up...lights dow...vent on psu starts to spin and than stops, spins and stops...
I've tryed 2 diffrent power socket im my house...so that ok.
Now I wonder, could it be that binds are touching eachother and that kills psu?
But if this is possible how did cpu survive?
Anyone got some suggestions?
I've contact msi directly and they were very friendly...they told me to RMA it trought my seller, but the thing is that my seller isn't half friendly as msi guys are. They told me that I touched bind and warranty is void.
I'll send you pictures of binds, that bind is not normaly bend..its curly...so its almost impossible for me to bend it like that. As soon my guy try to unbend it broke, so If I bend it like that (in a curly position) than I must be some kind of genious.
Also I don't get i how once cpu works normaly but after 1h it can't boot at all.
Pictures below shows curly pin and pin after he solder it.
Pls help.
P.S.
Sorry for my english...+ im on my phone :(

Lift your cpu and use magnifier to check if there are bend pins. If they are bended left or right, you might try to unbend them. Be carefull you will woid warranty, they can broke easily. I don't think cpu will OC because of bad pins. If you don't know around Pc take it to the store.

How? If you didn't drop anything on it how does a pin get bent? It' boggles the mind when the pins are meant to bend downwards also.

Yh this looks good..but is US...postal etc would cost me more than new mbo. :(

Well buy another mobo, you are outta luck. Take all parts to the shop for testing, get your electrical outlets tested for polarity problems.

1. Slots 3 and 4 is incorrect. On page of your manual you will see a diagram showing the proper slots to use (A2 and B2). See DDR3 video below, same for DDR4


2. Inspect CPU socket before installing CPU. Bent MoBo pins are like prison ... they all came from the store and everybody is innocent. No doubt there are few peeps in prison who don't belong there, but like bent pins coming from the factory, its a minority.

I'll be the first to admit...I've bent pins by not being super careful when placing the CPU in the socket. On a couple of occasions now(one being 2 days ago). It's fairly easy to do by accident. Luckily I been able to bend them all back in place without breaking any...so far. <knocks on wood>

Check the pics of my binds, one bind is curly...it's not possible to bend it like that. As soon we try unbend it it broke. I've allready purches new mbo...krait waits for socket replacment, socket that I can't find on ebay or ali express.
Thx for your help, my posts form today was for that other guy, but he delete his post I guess...
