Same... put the .ROM on a thumbdrive from separate computer, plugged it into new computer... went to advanced mode -> tool -> Asus EZ Flash Utility ... it detected the thumbdrive and gave me a list (since I had both 1003 & 1053)... just selected 1053 and followed the prompts. Restarted, went...

Also, what PSU are you using?

I went from a the e6700 to 2600k too! Just because I could! Like I read somewhere else though, "if you don't already know whether you need the 2500k or 2600k, you need the 2500k." For my purposes, I probably would have been fine with the 2500k... but I'd rather have the capability now and...

I flashed to 1053 the first time I booted with this new build. Been running smoothly for me (2600k @ 4.5ghz on Pro board). BTW, it wasn't clear in your post, but mine shipped with 0402 (I think?) bios version... not 1003. I put both 1003 & 1053 on a thumb drive in case there was problems...

Makes no difference... which ever you want. Might be easier to use the bottom one though if you wanted to add a drive later and didn't want to fight with trying to plug another device under the first cable if you already had one plugged in the top and had it tied down behind the board? lol ...

Yes, sorry... the PSU end of the ATX is 18pin + 10pin (had to go look it up!)... Looks like the 18pin plugs in top left and the 10pin in bottom left (looking at PSU from connector side with fan side up). As far as the PCI-E, the PSU end plugs into a socket on the PSU and branches into two...

- The PSU end of the ATX connector is a 10+14 pin connector. The motherboard end is a 20+4pin connector. The p8p67d is a 24pin power connector. So yes, BOTH ends of your ATX connector should be plugged in (they should clip together to form 1 single 24pin). - Connect your SSD to the gray SATA...

This... except that I believe you'll need to turn the computer on first. Even if nothing appears, you can hold the MemOK! button until it starts flashing and then let go. It should restart on it's own. Also, before holding the MemOK! button, check to see if any other red LEDs stay lit during the...

I built my 2600k on a P8P67 Pro last week myself and may be able to shed some light on the subject(s). 1) I am using the 1053 beta version of bios and so far have not had any problems. This with overclocking to 4.5ghz @ 1.275 volts (only changes I made in BIOS was to set CPU voltage to manual...
