Ok, so, this is my first time installing an AIO cooler and a x99 build.
Things i have on the build:
- i7 5960x
- asus x99 deluxe
- corsair axi 1500
- ati 5850 (i have a 295x2 waiting, but i just want to just have video for the first run, don't want to fry anything)
- ssd samsung 120gb

Here are some pictures.

Does everything look good to go in your opinion?.
I connected that third cable that comes with the AIO (not the fan cables) on the CHA_FAN pins, is that ok?
Also, the PSU is 110v, but im on Argentina (220v), do i need anything extra like a transformer or just pluggin it in on the right adapter is ok?

Thanks in advance.

As long as the board supports quad sli/crossfire then yes it should be fine. The cpu has enough memory lanes to support it...

No dud the power supply will be fine, over here in South Africa it`s also 220 and I know of many AX Corsairs that run just fine. The parts you chose is very nice and should run just fine. Nothing will fry or go wrong unless something was damaged in the installation process...

Nice System Spec btw...

Ok, im officially scared.
Turned the system on and none of the fans are spinning.
Not even the case fans. Let alone the CPU/AIO fans. I saw the mobo lights with the turn on and reset lighting up.
I turned everything off immediately.

What am i missing?

Firstly have a look at this step by step that is below, not saying you did anything wrong because its pretty hard to tell just from pictures; some things I would suggest:

1: I'm guessing your case doesn't have a speaker and doesn't give out a beep sequence? That can help diagnose the problem. - if not I recommend getting a speaker to see if there is a sequence being given off at start up, mine has saved me a few times :) (Section 2.4 Starting up for the first time on the link below)

2: The mobo lights should also give an indication on what the error would be and these light sequences are usually in the Mobo manual, unless things have changed in the last few years. The asus x99 deluxe has the Q-code LED correct have a look on this to see what the code is http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA2011/X99-DELUXE/e9504_x99-deluxe_series_ug_for_web_only.pdf

3: Have a look at some cable management :p unless you are waiting to get the build working right before routing cables?

4: Do you have anything plugged into the CPU_FAN plug?????? That could be an issue aswell.

Hope this helps! :)

Could it not be the mobo is not posting because it`s trying to run on quad channel and it encounters an error? Dude try removing dimm 1 and 3 on the left side... So there are 2 on either side...

I think that is a very strong possibility, would that stop the fans though, wouldn't it beep and carry on with the fans on then not boot and shut down? You are right though, It would be flipping out.

The fans not running is another thing all together but maybe with the new boards they are not just connected and and draws power maybe. I think they will start running when the PC actually gets to the BIOS. But I can be wrong. Just check and see if the ram thing works. My cpu fans btw don`t start spinning until the windows splash screen appears...

Hi, already tried removing the 2 rams, no beep code, no error code on the mobo, nothing..
I have the radiator plugged on the cpu fan, i also tried plugging one of the two fans to it, and same result.
This is what i got when i turn on the pc: http://imgur.com/HElOl0K

Ok, after googling a bit, i found out red light means that the connection between the mobo and the psu was lost.

This is what i connected to the psu: http://imgur.com/1BEarty

And this is what i connected to the motherboard:

At this point im panicking, mayne the psu is dead?

Ok, tried with a different psu that always worked fine for me (tx850) and i get the same error. I guess the mobo is dead?

Tried with only 2 sticks of ram. Same problem.

UPDATE: Ok, tried removing the entire power supply cable for the CPU and the PC boots, and it shows error 00 (no cpu), when i plug in the CPU power cable, i get no post/pc wont turn on.

Yes, i putted it right. I even tried with another cpu, and got the same error.
I bought two used mobos on ebay (asus rampage v extreme that came with two bent pins, check my other thread) and this x99 deluxe that doesnt detect any cpu.

Im afraid that these mobos might damaged my cpus.. Is this even possible?
I will get two x99 a brand new soon. It seems like it has almost the same specs as the deluxe version but its cheaper. Im kinda desperate at this point.
