Hi Guys
I'm having a slight issue with my new build, here are the specs:
Intel Core i7-2600K | ASUS P8P67 PRO | MSI N570GTX | 16GB (4 x 4GB)G.SKILL Ripjaws Series | A-DATA S599 64GB | 3 x 1TB Samsung F3
If the PC is totally turned off, when I boot it up the case and MOBO lights will come on, then it will turn off again.
A second later it will turn back on but won't boot (no display), on the MOBO there is a red light in the top right hand corner by the RAM which doesn't turn off (Other red lights on the MOBO turn on and off, almost like it's checking different things).
I unplug the PC from the mains, plug it back in and it boots ok.
When I first built the machine, it slowed my RAM down to 1333Mhz. I had to change it back to 1600Mhz in the BIOS. It didn't stay that way so I tried a ASUS default "speed boost" from within Windows. I choose "Fast" rather than "Extreme" and it seems to stay that way now according to the BIOS spped settings.
But even now, if the PC is turned off and back on again (like this morning when it had been turned off all night) then it wont boot first time. I have to unplug and plug it back in again.
BTW, what DRAM Frequency should it read in CPU-Z under the memory tab, currently for me it is 824.3Mhz.
