New Build Working!!

[Supra]

Ok got everything going, thank you to Balls, Six and Chuck, Seed, RC and everyone else who I forgot to mention for helping me. The problem was either the system was shorting out in the case or the memory way not pushed all the way in, either way its working now. Here is the build and my system specs and a 3D mark score for you guys and a system pic. Sorry for all the wires, Ill deal with that later, Im just happy to have this working.

ROG Asus Rampage III Extreme
i7 965 Extreme 3.2
EVGA GTX 580
SSD Intel 80GB
6GB Corsair Dominator -GT 2000
Noctua 6 Heatpipe Dual Fan Heat Sink
1200W Ultra 4 PSU

Nice; too bad it took 3 years off your life span.

LOL Balls...

Supra I'm glad you're up and running. That looks good but dear god is that a monster CPU cooler! I guess that's a Noctua and they cool well, but that thing's a beast.

On a side note, I tried a different thermal paste today. I was using the Prolimatech PK1 and getting 29.5c with my OC and just put on the Shin-Etsu MicorSI G751 and the same settings are running at 24-25c-quite a difference.
If you guys get a chance, try it out. I know Heatsurge mentioned this stuff before and damn does it ever work well.

What's the OC on that beast? It looks like a nice build, you just need to tighten up the cable routing a bit and it'll be pristine.

Soldier, looking at his pics, I don't think he was running an OC when he did that-the bclk is 133 which is stock for his cpu, I think.

Wow, how could you see that? My eye sight is good but not that good.

After all the re applying of the thermal paste, I need to clean and reapply it. ill go pick some up at frys this weekend and let you know. Or I could just send me some of your sloppy seconds
