You didn't ready first post.. I've already cleared CMOS, tried to cold boot by removing the battery and several other things, also tried to remove all hardware not necessary for the system to boot and also tried with one stick of RAM, other RAM etc.. But still nothing.

I've tried within the crappy case and outside just lying on a anti-static bag.

I did just pick up my Asus Rampage II Extreme today, it's been lying in my closet for a few months and today I was taking it out to build a system for my girlfriend.. It's been lying dry and dust free in my closet for a couple of months, and the CPU and RAM hasn't been unmounted since I used...

I do see several recommending the NEC EA231WMi and HP ZR24W over the F2380M? Here in Norway I could get the F2380M for about 315$, and both the NEC and HP goes for about 450-460$. So if I'm going to buy 3x monitors, they would be a bit more expensive, and considering Digitalversus.com...

Hi, I'm considering different monitors for my future thee-monitor nVIDIA Surround setup (no 3D!) when my 2x GTX480 arrives later this week. I was looking at the Acer G245HQ 120Hz monitor, until I read all the dreadful feedback on it's 2D / desktop performance, giving users headaches and...

What does the EVGA X58 Classified offer that the other X58 motherboards doesn't? I know it has this really kick-ass red / black look, and a awesome layout, and what must be one of the biggest (yet darn beautiful) north-bridge heatpipe.. But how come it will be sold at $400-450? Is really...

Well, the new Asus Rampage II Extreme 1104 BIOS update did completely mess up my Rampage II Extreme motherboard BIG-TIME! No, it was not a bad flash, I have no idea what happened, re-flash / down-flash didn't resolve anything what's so ever, making my motherboard useless as stuff like RAID...

Hi, I've got a really hard time figuring which of these five audio cards solutions I should go for: 1: Auzentech Prelude 2: Auzentech Forte 3: Wait for the Auzentech Home Theater HD 4: Asus Xonar D2X 5: Asus Xonar HDAV1.3 Deluxe My Auzentech Prelude cards just got confirmed...

Actually it was fixed by adding a 4-pin adapter that followed with one of my Noctua fans, seems like the Corsair molex connectors are too short for some reason?

Hi, I just installed my brand new Asus Xonar HDAV1.3 Deluxe audio card! But after installing the latest drivers, it asks me to insert the 4-pin molex power cord to the back of the card, which I've done.. But upon every start-up of Windows it keeps claiming that the power is unplugged...

This "workstation" tag makes me *puke*! What the hell is so workstation about this board if I may ask? It goes the same cheap Asus controllers as almost all the other boards (they aren't superior compared with other brands either, expect for those who use crappy JMicron RAID controllers)...

I wonder how well MLC is doing when writing / reading several files at once? My experiences with my 8GB Corsair Flash Voyager GT (SLC) and 16GB Corsair Flash Voyager GT (MLC) is that MLC really sucks when doing much at ones, copying one file goes okay, two fairly good, three or more.. SUCKS...

Hi, I've just started putting together my new rigg, it consists of the Asus Rampage II Extreme (couldn't wait for the Foxconn BloodRage or DFI LanParty UT X58 any longer) I'm going to run 3x VelociRaptor 150GB in RAID0 (was thinking about a Seagate Cheetah 15K.6 146GB on the BloodRage, but...

Just hijacking your thread for a split second here.. I've ordered myself a Asus Xonar HDAV1.3 Deluxe and a set of Creative Gigaworks S750 7.1 speakers, will I obtain the Dolby Digital Live / Dolby Digital TrueHD and DTS(HD) Master Audio capabilities when running through the RCA / mini-jack...

Hmm.. Will the HDAV1.3 Deluxe provide my Creative Gigaworks S750 7.1 speaker system with Dolby Digital TrueHD / DTS(HD) Master Audio capabilities?
