    i7-2600K Sandy Bridge + ASUS SABERTOOTH P67 (REV 3.0)

    Didn't try the new stock cooler. Didn't want to waste my time. From now on, I'll use an after market cooler from the start.

    I doubt there was a problem with the heatsink mount, as this isn't my first build. I checked and re-checked the mounting and it was secured to the CPU and motherboard. Like I said earlier, I reduced the CPU cores down to 1 and was able to boot and install windows and other drivers. One...

    Yes, I did reset the cooler. I watched the youtube video just to make sure there wasn't anything special for it. This is the probably the 5th PC I've built with a stock Intel cooler and never had any problems.
