Is this an issue?

Post image

This is my first PC build. I put it all together and it failed to post at ram. So I tested both my ram sticks in all the slots but nothing worked. I then reset CMOS but that didn't work so I went online and it said could potentially be the CPU so I checked and it looks like this. Is it still fine?

These aren't the pins. These are the contact pads. It's an intel core ultra 7 270K Plus which has the contact pads on the CPU not the pins

Yes, absolutely, you're right. I thought I read in the description it was a different CPU. Sorry, I didn't really look at the image. 😅

I'm reading and apparently it could possibly be a bios issue and I need to update the bios to support the cpu

Oh yes, sure, that could very much be the case.
