Ericloewe/cyberjock/Fraoch: Thanks your your input. I completely understand their stance on it. I did take Eric's advice and call personally and the guy on the phone had a much different stance than the guy I was emailing. After explaining everything, he said if I tried 2 different power supplies & verified they are working and double-checked the memory & CPU, he thinks it must be a motherboard issue.
Then I asked him, even with a CPU incompatibility with the 1.X version of BIOS, shouldn't the fans at least spin to indicate power when the power button is pressed? He agreed with me and just said to either RMA through them or return the motherboard to the reseller. I've already returned it to Newegg for an exchange, but if the replacement acts the same, I'll just RMA it back to SuperMicro.
Will keep you guys posted.
