I've heard that if you try and play with the 24 pin power connector, it may decide to boot up... a few people on here have had problems with their 24pin power connector

So i pulled everything apart today.I did pull out the motherboard from the case+powerunit and tried the new memory no go changend the cooler to intel orginal no go.I dont know what to do next.I was to the local computerstore and tried the axe mem on a computer there they worked great.So that leaves only the powerunit or the cpu to be faulty.Do you have any ideas.

It's prob a bad rail on the PSU ..replace it.... after all you'v been through go for it .... psu cheaper than a cpu..

That could be real true.. Plus, test a PSU, and if it didn't work... You can turn it back in! :rockout:

Also, I got my 3.8 clocks on the Bios tread. If you guys think of any way to make it better clock... Let me know!

Posted in there.. and hopefully we can find a way to get it fixed... Rampage Bios is something else.. Very different... But, my 3.5 clocks won't work from Max... Going to have to play again with it!

the bios is still immature. the 0804 bios fixes a ton of problems. this board will soon be the next maximus i think... if not... the maximus II will be, but either way.... p45 is where its at.

Trt: LMAO at the link.. Thought it was going to be a link to a setting to try! lol..

I found out my problem... when I went from 3.3 on stock volts... I was trying to UNDER volt it at 3.5... I was thinking it was 1.5 when it was 1.150... LMAO.... So now its all back... But, I did try to hit 4ghz... Kept on getting the IRQ_Less_NOR_EQUAL error... SO, I'm open to all ears... I tried it all at my 3.7 clocks that are in the Bios thread...
