Motherboard does not start up when my Q9550 pluget in. It all started when I try to plug in a new video card.

No ram. No Video Card. Only CPU and MB. No post sounds.

CPU was tested at 4 different motherboards. Same result.

What could it be? He died?

Gigabyte EP45 extreme FSB 1600

This may be due to memory?

When memory is not plugged in should be heard any POST sounds?

Q9550 is a good CPU but not for overclocking easy to burn up specialy with high volts.
