Re: Intel DZ87KLT-75K gives "CPU hot" error fresh out the box

Thank you for your recommendations Joe.  Prior to reviewing the community help I had spent hours navigating through the support pages and had unassembled the system completely, and restarted with the minimal hardware possible, but my problem occurred the instant the power is turned on and the error comes up and it is not possible for it to heat that quickly to the temperature required to trigger the light and shut it down.

 

My CPU and heatsink are installed properly, and there were not many options in the no boot wizard for an issue that occurred before getting into BIOS.

 

Although it didn't seem to make any sense to me except for the issue Stephen encountered, I thought I would try another power supply even though the one I originally tried powered up another system I have (with x79 chipset and i7k processor).  I tried another identical power supply and I was able to get into the BIOS and then able to boot.  This does not make a lot of sense to me, but I will reconsider some of the components I will use in future builds.

 

I am going to have the initial power supply tested, but so far, it has performed as anticipated when in the other system.

 

If I can identify any specific issue with the original power supply, I will post it here
