I was thinking you had an i5 last we talked, wasn't sure if it'd fried or something which caused you to go to amd ^^' But hey man, at least you've something to look forward to right? :D

Leave my cable management alone =p I spent time on that! ^^' I'm afraid since I never looked into AMD processors/mobos so I'm not sure what to say about that! Aren't they releasing a new line of processors to compete with Ivy soon? maybe you could wait for that, and for all we know it could...

Well I'm playing crysis 2 on ultra right now, lagged like hell at first... then i noticed diablo 3 was running in the background xD But it's running grand right now with no noticeable frame drops at all :) Also you want pics? I got pics! .... But you have to promise not to laugh at my attempt...

Hey bro! aye the specs changed based on what the prices on Amazon were at the time ^^', the 7850 was asus and only 1 left in stock so they lowered the price to £174.99, thought it was a good price and thought what the hey! same with the motherboard actually :) I haven't had a chance to really...

Was a long night, but everything's up and ready :) need to upload windows 7 and that's me, although the keyboard still hasn't arrived yet, which is driving me crazy because it's the only thing that was ordered first class haha!

In my opinion there is absolutely no point getting the 560 that isn't ti, spend the extra what, 10-20 and get a much better card. ZOTAC AMP! ZT-50302-10M GeForce GTX 560 Ti (Fermi)... Zotac aren't really considered the best (MSI/Asus make the best 560ti imo) But they're still fine. If you plan...

IT'S WORKING, big thank you guys! No idea how, but when I plugged in the fan the whole thing just started up and running! Although I do have to hold the motherboards power button at the same time as I flick the switch, although it does that Start and stopping thing without the heatsink still...

Please don't take this the wrong way! But what do the Ram sticks have to do with powering the board? (not saying you're wrong I'm just curious as I'm new to this. Also the frigging heatsink wont even work now ether )): the brackets wont fit with the spacers on :banghead::banghead: ^ Never mind...

pfffft.... I don't know what you're talking about ;)

It's on a table with a thick layer of cardboard between it and the table, and I've been grounding every 3 mins :/ You re indeed correct sir, My mistake typing asus haha, yeah there is a power button but it doesn't seem to be doing anything since the psu doesn't seem to want to give it any juice!

There is a small 2 digit LED light doctor thing on the board, unfortunately it's no help since I can't get any power to it! /: Unfortunately already tried that ): Is a short the problem of the motherboard or the PSU? Will fit it now and see. Also thanks for the getup compliment ^^' If I can...

How do I check for shorts when the mobo wont power? like, I mean it wont power at all, anything, I switched the ram, no change, tried switching pci ports, no change, but! I didn't try the bios thing, ill try that. What is the post reader under the chipset cooler? :/ Thanks Sorry about the...

Could the fact I'm using a i5 2500k on a Z77 board be causing it? I know they're backwards compatible and all but still :/

*sigh* that'd make it too easy wouldn't it ^^'

8pin eps is connected, also would that be a problem with the board or the psu? Ill remount the CPU now, does it matter if the fan is connected (Mine currently isn't)
