hi

1. Please check if your machine is powered. When the power is on, the power button will light up briefly.
2. Try to press and hold the power button for more than 10 seconds to see if it can be turned on.
3. Open the bottom of the machine, unplug the CMOS battery, short the CMOS interface on the motherboard for about 30 seconds, discharge and reset the BIOS settings.

The above operations are invalid, please contact the seller to return or repair.

best regards

Hello,

In line with this, I plan to purchase 16 units x45 Premium 6/128 to be used as a kiosk cpu, outdoors at 33 degrees celcius average temperature. Do I need to add fan? what size do you recommend 80mm/140mm? Please advice on how to maximize its life expectancy for at least 3 years.

Thank you.

With ambient around 30-32C here, I usually have 85-87C with AIDA stress test.
That's with new bios + X45 Premium 6/128.

If it only 1 unit, I would suggest a thermal mod by replacing thermal pad with better product.
(15C temp drop for my experience)
I guess you can always limit the TDP to 8W in bios thus reducing the temp 5-10C.

How to limit TDP?

Advanced => CPU Configuration => CPU Power Management Configuration
change Power Limit 1 Power to whatever desired

Why you want to do this?
