i've had a few issues.
1st make sure your usb keyboard and mouse are plugged into the usb 2.0 ports. NOT the usb 3.0.
and 2nd, the #@%$^&* driver disc that came in the box is blank! tried it in 3 seperate computers. they all say, "please insert disc" and then eject the stupid thing. had to pull down the network driver on a different computer then all was well.
i have it setup now open air on a box, with the stock intel HS on it. i need to order some new fans and tubing then i will put the water to it.
picked up a swiftech apogee hd water block, and an 8gig set of ddr3 1600mhz kingston ram from microcenter today. the ram seems decent enough, xmp profile loaded without a hitch. if anyone needs a cheap set of ram, $34 at MC.
hit the OC genie button for a 4.2ghz overclock, quick and easy. i am not going to push it until i get the WC set up. but i'm liking it so far. once it get windows upgated i will run a quick 3d11 run and post it.
as of now i like it, will keep everyone updated. (now to change my system specs) had that q9550 for toooo long.lol
