z440
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have a z440 with a E5-1630 v3.  The z440 White Paper says the E5-2600 processor series is supported.  I tried an E5-2683 v4.  After pressing the power button the light came on and immediately went out.  Repeated attempts to turn the system on resulted in the same thing.

hp does not list the e5-2683 as a supported processor they only list the lower wattage (120 watt) quad core

 

   E5-2637 v4 processor / E5-2623 v4 processors

 

 http://www8.hp.com/h20195/v2/GetPDF.aspx/c04400038.pdf

 

however the e5-2683 v4 is also a 120 watt cpu, so it should work

 

having the power light  on then off right away is usually a indication of a short somewhere in the system 

 

the short can be caused by a defective cpu or anything else.

 

you can rule out most things if the system will boot using your orignal cpu

 

if it will boots using the orig cpu, then the problem is most likely the new cpu itself is bad
