So I recently bought this motherboard since my old had some broken pins in it. I got every hooked up, booted it up, and it was posting code "4F". What does mean?

3F~4F Reserved.

What CPU and memory are you running? If you are running any thing higher then 2133 it could be the problem.

I'm running a i7 6700k and G.Skill Ripjaw V DDR4-2133 16GB (4x4GB)

Try booting from just one stick. You using a video card?

I've already tried booting with one stick and without the video card.

Sorry not getting back to you, but have you tried it out of the case?

What the mobo should say then? I had yesterday and day before that A0 but today 6F (reserved).

I know you said you are using memory 2133, but what I'm reading it has to do with ram. Have you look at the CPU socket to see if you have a bent pin.

The reason I said try outside the case it could be shorting out on something. I always first test every board on the box it comes in before I put it in the case.
