    Signs of a dead power supply?

    That's called artifacts... 100% GPU related. Sounds like EVGA Support is bs'ing you. Only way to rule out your GPU, is if you tried another card and still have same issue.

    I've been told using a razor works best, so you can try that. :)

    Would this psu be enough for this pc?

    For that price, I wouldn't buy it.. 3 +12V rails with only 50A. Get this instead: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371015

    Possible PSU Failing?

    Looks like you were right! Ended up re-seating my RAM and I haven't had a crash since! I guess I can blame my MoBo really, since it doesn't have a lock-switch on both sides of the RAM, only one side.. Fail design >.> But I'm sitting here stable at 4.5GHz, 1.335Vcore, 1.7PLL. :) And of course I...

    PSU Dying.

    You might be able to get an HX750 from Ebay for around that much. Or if you trust used ones, I'm sure someone from here can sell you an HX750 for around there too.

    Possible PSU Failing?

    Well I can understand that, but I'm not experiencing any BSOD. Just a hard crash (shutdown / power-off) and reboots. o.O

    Possible PSU Failing?

    Just 2 passes. If they weren't seated correctly, I would assume it wouldn't even boot or get past 1% of a Memtest86..

    Possible PSU Failing?

    I'm going to try and loosen the RAM timings from stock to see if the RAM is a bad set. But it does pass Memtest86, so I don't know about that. If that doesn't work, I'll probably contact ASUS and see if they have any advise or information for me.

    Someone please explain what the # of threads actually means

    Problem is, the 2500k has 2x the L2 and L3 cache, so essentially, it's different architecture. I'd still like to see a bench between the two at same clock speeds.

    Someone please explain what the # of threads actually means

    That 30% improvement is only seen on applications that utilize 4 cores at once. This. ^^

    Someone please explain what the # of threads actually means

    Hard to say since there are no processors to test this theory on. For the average gamer, you don't need the 8 threads, but if you're into video rendering and encoding, then it'll definitely help and be a noticeable difference.

    Possible PSU Failing?

    Well I was still getting hard crashes even at stock settings for everything, so I replaced the PSU with a new HX850, and I'm still having same issue. Thoughts on what it could be?

    2600K or i7 970

    Sabertooth is overpriced because it has an ugly heatsink on it... I'd recommend the UD4 or the WS Revolution over that.

    Overclocking help

    May I ask what C3 and C6 is, and why it's recommended to turn them off?

    Help W/Ocing

    Honestly, I wouldn't go over 1.35V on a 1156 chip.
