So my friend and I both bought 9590s to upgrade our ancient 1090t. Mine arrived with 2 bent cpu pins so sadly I have to exchange it. However my buddy and I out the other 9590 into his cross hair mobo and it booted but all of the sudden before post it gave the ff q code and turned off.

Both cpu power slots are occupied.
Ez plug is occupied by 4 slot molex.
Ram is good and already checked
No smells of burning etc
Board was used for a long time with a 1090t black edition so I highly doubt it's the board...
Im.sure I'm overlooking something very stupid here but I'd appreciate your feedback.

I forgot to add this but I cmos cleared and removed the bios battery after I discovered the problem. They have since been put back in but yeah just in case you guys were wondering lol

System specs

Asus cross hair v formula z mobo
Ax1200i psu
Amd fx 9590 cpu
2 gtx 780ti
Corsair h100i cooling unit with 2 120 mm fans in pull configuration
Corsair vengeance 1600mhz low profile memory
Samsung 840 pro 500gb ssd

When I run the typical tests I obviously take everything out and try re inserting one by one. Like I said I'm probably overlooking skmething dumb

Your bios for the Motherboard needs to be updated for the Amd FX-9590 to work.

How did it arrive with two bents pins? I'm surprised they let you RMA it
