  • N68C-GS FX / Athlon II X2 270 / DDR3 1333 = No POST

    I have done several previous builds in the past, mostly intel. This time I purchased a combo ASRock N68C-GS FX motherboard with the ADM Athlon II X2 270 (Part #ADX270OCGMBOX). Then added Corsair XMS3 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 1333 MHz (PC3 10666) Desktop Memory (TW3X4G1333C9A). On first boot Fans spin, no POST, No Beeps, No Video. And yes, I checked the cabling. So what’s wrong with this build? My guess is that the X2 is an AM2 not an AM3 as advertised and therefore incompatible with the DDR3 memory.

    So don't be offended but did you put the ram in the correct slots for ddr3, I am running the same cpu and have 2x4gb ram ddr3 and it is running just fine.
