Re: Faulty ASUS X99-PRO board. Some progress with repair. Need advice\help please.

*addition to previous post. I just slowly geat the area while the motherboard is running in the boot loop, and after 20-30 sec on medium heat it just comes alive.

Re: Faulty ASUS X99-PRO board. Some progress with repair. Need advice\help please.

Im looking at a Asus x99-A motherboard with the same exact problem, and have had multiple x99 boards fail in the exact same way.
Both a MSI x99s sli plus, and 2! asus strix x99 gaming with EXACT same fault.
I havent bothered trying to repair any of them until now, but it seems like if i take my heat gun on low, and heat up area around the ram on the left side of the board it will post, and behave normally until shutdown with pwr button. reset works fine.
Im going to look a bit...
