    Using EKWB backplate with stock cooler

    I have an 1150 stock cooler that I want to try out to see if some of my ram slots are working or I just put the waterblock on wrong - can I use the EKWB CPU waterblock back plate with it, or do I need the actual stock back plate? Thank you!

    Quick question about the Swiftech MCP655-B and GPM

    Hello, I just wanted to clarify something about this pump - I have bought the -B version a while back and am looking at the specs because I want to upgrade my build. I know this isn't the PWM model - the Swiftech website says that the pump puts out about 317 GPH, which measures at around 5.2GPM...

    No video output after loop installation

    Thank you! When I first made the PC, I had a red/black theme, but I also had no idea how widespread the theme is lol. But I went with it since it matches the motherboard and the overall look.

    No video output after loop installation

    No video output after loop installation

    Reinstalled watercooling loop - and it is working now. Thank you so much for all the help. Now I just need to mess around with settings and what not and try to overclock my CPU and GPU. Now cable management next, and gawk at my temps. In the bios setting I put "CPU_FAN" to ignore, but I have...

    No video output after loop installation

    Okay, I just reseated the stock cooler and made sure everything was properly pushed through. My system is booting!!! This is awesome. The Asus Maximus Hero VII has 2 red slots where my rams originally were. When I put the one ram in the slot closest to the CPU, the mobo keeps turning on and...

    No video output after loop installation

    Okay, so with the stock cooler I still can't get the BIOS to show up. I am not getting any beep codes as well. Would I have to enable onboard graphics with the ASUS Hero Maximus VII mobo, or would it default to motherboard graphics? I have a Q_Code of 55. This means that the memory isn't...

    No video output after loop installation

    I haven't had time to trouble shoot. I am going to install the stock cooler again and leave the pump/GPU unplugged. I will see if it works with just the bare minimum. If I had fried the motherboard, it wouldn't start at all correct? I am also going to plug in the mobo speaker to see what beep...

    No video output after loop installation

    Sorry for triple posting. But I have the Supremacy MX - and I just realized I didn't put the BAS washer in front of the back plate. Will this cause any problems with the CPU it self...like shorting it out so it doesn't work anymore? At the moment I don't have time to apply the BAS washer cause...

    No video output after loop installation

    I am guessing to troubleshoot it, I will need another CPU and a GPU and put em in one by one and see whats going on?

    No video output after loop installation

    Thanks a lot for the response. I removed the battery and let it stay out for a bit, and plugged it back in. Still no video. The PCI-E slots are in properly. All the cables are in properly, I made sure again just now. I am using a full cover waterblock without a back plate. I loosened all my...

    No video output after loop installation

    Hi, I installed my loop, installed waterblocks, bled, leak tested...everything looked good. I took the computer to my room and plugged everything in. Everything starts up, my mouse lights up (no keyboard, idk why), there are lights on the motherboard, fans are running, water is moving. But, the...

    EK Pump top and Res question

    Hi, I bought the EK X3 250 Res as well as an EK D5 X Top for the Swiftech MCP655. I wanted to mount the pump right underneath the reservoir. My question was, would it be okay if the pump was "floating" right underneath the reservoir with a male to male connector. Meaning, the pump wouldn't have...
