A voltage of 2.75?!?! The highest safest voltage for that CPU is under 1.3. You definitely need to turn it down and if your processor hasn't been incinerated you can slowly ramp up the voltage until you get to about 4.6-4.8 GHz, good goals for the i5-6600k.

Best situation for that price point would be a i5-6400 and a gtx 1060 3gb, but the i3 is fine.

It can vary a decent amount on how far you can overclock, but I would up the overclock about .2 GHz each time, and if it crashes up the voltage, until you reach about 60 C while testing. Searching around, it looks like that processor begins to thermal throttle at 70 C so just stay below that...

Did you press the RAM in to hard when you reinstalled it? If you put too much pressure on RAM when you install it, you can damage your motherboard.

Only plug the graphics card into your monitor, not the motherboard. Also, make sure that your GPU is fully in the PCIe bus and that the latch has clicked. I don't know how long that card has been in your pc, but it's an old card so if it has been in there for a while, and if the card is...

Use the fan header for the radiator fan, and the pump header for the pump part of it. Just get a fan hub like this, connect the fans to it, and then connect the 1 4 pin to your motherboard. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VNW556I/ref=s9_acsd_hps_bw_c_x_1

I hear this board works with ECC memory https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P9X79_WS/. It makes sense that it would work considering it's a workstation board. Just make sure you use a Xeon, i'm pretty sure that intel made ECC memory support Xeon exclusive.

I think the easiest thing to do would be to call Asus and either send it to them to be replaced or ask them to send you a replacement.

All 775 socket CPUs will work since it's a 775 motherboard. Here is a list of every 775 CPU http://www.cpubenchmark.net/socketType.html#id5

The CPU won't bottleneck it, and the Titan upgrade would probably be about 40%-50% better, so you can decide based on that

Here's some things you can try to trouble shoot - 1. Check your CPU temps with stress testing programs to see if it's a problem with the rendering program or if it is a problem with the cores themselves. 2. Turn off the two cores that are overheating and try rendering to make sure that the...

Try turning off some of the cores in your processor to see if that fixes the issue. If it works when you turn off certain cores, its most likely an issue with your processor. Otherwise it might be a motherboard issue.
