Hi all, this is the build in question: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/linejumpr/saved/yv72FT
What's been happening so far, is that when I go to boot, my cpu POST led blink 4 times and then my Ram led stays a solid red and I cannot get anything to display or go into BIOS. All of this started 3 days after installing into a new case, and I have been using this CPU and MOBO for 3 weeks.
I have taken the mobo out of the case, disconected all unnecessary devices, ensured all power headers are properly set, and tried every permutation of ram (including no ram). I've also tried disconnecting my heatsink to check the mobo's pins (which were perfectly normal).
And something odd with this problem is that the only way I can get anything to display, and the only way I can get to my BIOS is by letting my cpu overheat, which causes a reboot into BIOS.
I really feel like I've tried everything and I really might just RMA my mobo and or CPU.
Thanks for any advice you can give me!
