Confirm that you've connected both the 8 pin and 4 pin power cables to the motherboard connectors.

I am having the same problem. @Chino does this motherboard require both the 8 pin and 4 pin connectors by the CPU need to be connected to the PSU?

The 8 pin header is mandatory. The other 4 pin is optional but highly recommended if your PSU has the cable or if you're going to be doing any overclocking. 🙂

Are you reffering to the 4 pin older style conncetor that goes under mb?

Will the forum bugs get fixed?

No there is a 4 pin connector at the top of the motherboard by the 8 pin.

The one on bottom (4 pin, older style) is for gpus if 3-4 gpus?

I have connected the 8 pin and the 4 pin CPU headers on my Rampage V Extreme MOBO BUT my system is still shutting itself off !!! My Windows 10 Event log is filled with critical shutdown events. I have a support thread going on this. I have sent the MOBO to the local ASUS Service center and they said it checked out OK. They said they fixed the bad DDR4 memory edge connector BUT this MOBO is still shutting itself off !!! I will continue with ASUS Support. They told me they would escalate my case and I requested the contact information to the appropriate people. They have not provide this contact information yet.

How do I get this MOBO replaced? This MOBO is still under warranty !!!

ps: all of my overclocking is on hold until I get this system stable.

BIOS 0901 is not the latest. Try flashing bios 2201.

3xxx versions of BIOS are unstable, and cause random reboots and USB ports failures, don't flash that.
