    Gigabyte x58 UD4P wont post

    Thanks for the advice. Looking at motherboards on ebay more selection than I figured. I thought the Corsair HX1000 was pretty decent, at least it was back in 2008, lol.

    Gigabyte x58 UD4P wont post

    Well tried my brothers PSU in my computer and still the same. Probably just going to see if I can get another motherboard. Like the setup and new computers do not seem like a great step up at this point for the cash outlay.

    I currently have a GIGABYTE GA-EX58-UD4P motherboard with the i7-920. Been looking to upgrade, but for the money it costs for motherboard and cpu nowadays i though it would be worth it to look into the 1366 Xeons. I have searched online and come up with conflicting reports on the UD4P...

    7970 ghz vapor x to 280x with bios flash?

    Yeah I have no worries on bios flashing, had flashed an OC bios on it before. Was just a little curious if the 280x bios would be truly compatible and stable did not know how similar the 7970 and 280 were. Thanks for the replies!
