Hello, I managed to oc my Sapphire 100363VX-3L 280x from 1000/1500 to 1150/1650 with power limit to +15. I did not touch the voltage as it is locked in the bios to a max of 1.225 These clocks work fine in 3DMark11, MSI Kombustor, FurMark, and Heaven. However, in 3DMark11 it stays at 950/1500...

Well, guess what. I have plugged the cable in the power supply from cpu1 to cpu2 and everything works! Lol, and I even considered RMA'ing the mobo. Looks like the pins the the EVGA power supply CPU1 got damaged. Might have to RMA the power supply instead...

@ Vic 40 Yes, I did press the reset CMOS button and even jumped the two metal sticks with a screwdriver where it says in the manual that it will reset CMOS. My problem is that there is no video signal, meaning that neither the video card nor the mobo are emitting any signal. There is no POST...

Thanks for your time! I have started a threat in the Gigabyte motherboard section here if anyone is interested: http://forum.giga-byte.co.uk/index.php?topic=15894.0

Well as there is no video signal I guess the problem is a hardware one, which might have to do with the motherboard itself ...

Yes, the GPU is connected and the lights are on. The fans are also working. I have tried connected either the GPU to the monitor, motherboard to the monitor, or both. Still no signal. And yes I did change the channels on the monitor from HDMI1, 2, to VGA.

Well I have no way to check that as there is no video coming into the monitor, although my motherboard is rev. 1.0 so there might be a newer version available but even if there is, how would I update the bios as there is no video on the monitor?

This is a brand new PC, meaning there was nothing on the hard drives as I received them from NewEgg. Here is a thing I tried now: I switched the SB on the motherboard from Dual BIOS to Single BIOS and the computer no longer restarts, however there is no video nor are the mouse and keyboard...

Hello, Basically I installed Windows 8.1 Pro from a USB that was made with MediaCreationTool.exe The computer worked and everything was fine. After I installed windows to the SSD, the computer keeps restarting infinitely without showing anything on the screen. My motherboard is gigabyte gaming...

Well, after some intensive researching, I think I'll jump on the Lucifier. I found a review of it here: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?290003-Deepcool-Gamer-Storm-Lucifer-V2 This is for v1 I think, but still the versions should be very similar...

Hello, I am currenlty searching for a good aftermarket cooler to cool my i5 4690k in the Phanteks Enthoo Pro case. I am thinking about the Noctua NH-D14 priced at $80. Also I am thinking about the DEEPCOOL Gamer Storm Lucifer V2 priced at around $45. Obviously, the Lucifier is cheaper by $35...

Well, I decided to choose the Phanteks either way lol

I chose the Razor one as I liked the less tall keys. Thanks for all the input!

Thanks for all the responses. I decided to go with Asus MX279H.

Hello, I would like your opinion on what is the 140mm case fun under $16? I will be buying four of them to put into the Phanteks Enthoo Pro Series. Thanks.
