What's your Passmark Performance Test Score

Gary, you either have the worst luck in the history of human luck, or you are terribly rough on hardware! LOL

Kidding of course. Do you think the board is bad, or the CPU? What BIOS revision did you say you were running?

Don't get him thinking the board is bad Kelly! I think he has RMA'd more stuff in the last few weeks than me and you have in our lives put together!

I think I have bought a considerable amount of hardware over the last few years, I have only had to RMA 2 things, a GPU that was DOA and 8GB of my current Ram (one stick decided to die).

Either he is getting bad hardware or he has a short circuit in his brain (Sorry Gary just having a joke lol)

I've been relatively lucky I have to admit, but I know how it feels to have to RMA a piece of hardware that you've waited for and want to get your hands on. Oh, Paul, you'll be happy to hear I will probably be getting a video card soon as I finally have the need for one lol. I'll keep you updated.

I am almost too shocked to comment! All I will say is.. I will believe it when I see it ok Kelly haha! What you got in mind mate? 760? 770?

Still deciding between a 4GB GTX 760, and a 2GB GTX 770.

@ Gary

Damn you got the same board as all of us and I got mine at the cheapest

I am honestly lost for words why your performance isn't banging up there with everyone else

I have the 2003 BIOS version.
Just changing some settings back to default shouldn't have kept the board from booting. The GPU LED stayed on even in other slots, ot removing it and trying the Intel graphics. IT don't add up.

Maybe it is me and nothing is wrong. with these high end high dollar parts they should perform perfectly.

Yes they should Gary, I agree 100%. Paying top dollar for a high end part shouldn't come with having to work around bugs and problems.

If you changed it back to default, did you make sure that is was booting from the correct drive etc?

That is a tricky one Kelly, why the hell didn't they make the 770 3GB minimum!
