    Just bought a new CPU as in title of thread, but getting nothing on screen. Not sure if I have bought a fault or as I more expect, I need a new motherboard?

    My current motherboard is an ASUS Prime 8350 M-A.

    Any advise appreciated before I pull it all apart again as I have had to resort back to my 2700.

    Have you updated the motherboard to the latest BIOS?

    No, I'm not sure it'll be enough.

    Don't even know how to do that? Is it easy, risky?
