Hey, I'm trying to put together an Epyc 7551P and a Supermicro H11SSL-I, both were purchased used on eBay, and I haven't gotten it to post yet, so I'm pretty concerned.
I've read that the amount of torque you apply to the chip socket and/or heatsink is kind of fiddly, so I've removed and re-seated the heatsink after taking pains to count the number of revolutions I made screwing the holder down (trying not to make too tight, but even). The problem is, I don't have the torque wrench AMD includes with the processors, I should probably get one and eliminate this as a potential issue ASAP.
But let's start even more simple than potential torque issues: Shouldn't this thing beep?
The block diagram says there's a speaker, SP1, which I have located on the motherboard. But I'm not only not getting a POST on the monitor, I don't hear any beeps. ALL my other SM boards beep when turning on, whether happy or not.
The seller said it doesn't have a speaker and doesn't beep, but that surprises me after owning at least 8 SM boards, this would be the first one that never beeps during startup.
Thanks!
