Maximus XI Gene qcode CC - dead?

[edhunterbg]

Hi,
Since yesterday I cannot boot. I see code CC on the led indicator and no screen output. Also the status led stops on the yellow (ram).
Last thing I did before die was rearranging the cables and pipes.
So far I tried bios reset. One by one memory slots. No video card. Nothing helps. No info in the manual for CC code.

Please help 😞

cpu 9900k delided (was at 5.0GHz)
psu 1000W be quiet dark power
ram gskill 3200c14 (2x16GB)

I haven't had q-code CC myself. I did some searching on the web, and it can be many things, unspecified.

To me, it feels like it has something to do with cables and pipes. Any cable clamped / grounded, any screw you fitted? Backtrack what you did in the first place.

It might be something with Ram or CPU, but it worked before.

The cpu is dead.
I tried it on another board and it is dead.
Also I tried another cpu (9700k) on my board and it works.

So the 9900k is dead 😞
Unfortunately I have delid it and it was working fine couple of days with no issues.

It was not good.

But we all learn from our mistakes.
