Yeah I think it's either the CPU or the motherboard about to die. At least Ivy Bridge motherboards are not expensive as Gulftown's.

Well checked every cable and stick and card for a good seating but still posting in 10 forum just not happening - just keep losing what I type.

There is no way I could get the same board and the prices I have seen match Skylake ones and it really gives me the trots when I know this machine has been good and I might just look at Gigabyte boards instead of Asus. Trouble is a new CPU too eh?
