just my .02

Cheers!
I'm using a tuned Fortron FSP capable of giving 450W

Anyway, does not matter what I disconnect...
Pure Mobo, CPU, Memory and GPU gives me the same problem.
Removing the GPU and/or memory makes no difference.

Same issue there.
I think it's strange that this would course my problems......

Over tightning... that could be it.. I use the Whitewater, with springs, and I have a backplate to prevent toe mobo from bending...

Still strange..
When I use a stock CPU cooler from Intel, it works for a short while... after this, one worm or cold reboot, and my problems begin....
