    Raging about recent Mobos I've purchased

    Sigh it just donned on me. A few days before I hooked up my WC loop I switched PSUs. That also happened to be the first PSU I hooked up.

    Well by exact same problem I should define that - it wont POST. Also my E760 worked when I got it and degraded quickly while overclocking which eventually wouldn't POST. While this one wouldn't POST out of the box.

    I feel like you are severely underestimating my proficiency with hardware. Yes the only part I do not have to switch out is any DDR3 RAM other than my CMT6GX3M3A1600C6. I tested them in my buddies rig after my e760 died when I was checking for hardware failure ( I checked all my other parts)...

    Alright check this out: In the past half year I have purchased two motherboards. The first being the EVGA E760 and the second being the Asus Rampage III Extreme. Both of these motherboards had some bad issues. On the e760 the it died after some OCing (about 30 mins into OCing with voltages...

    This is only the CPU/Mobo loop. Not to mention I am using a high flow 1/2" line setup. For my VGA loop I will be using a triple rad with full nickel plated WBs. got thermal paste. Turning off comp and starting the transformation.

    Fan Controller help.

    I couldn't help myself... Tools used: 1. Hands 2. Knife 3. Scotch tape 4. 3-pin extensions results: gotta turn one fan on at a time with a revving motion lol, but it works and I am pleased. (notice the taped in wires connecting to the male part of the extensions - win). sorry...

    Yes mine is wired like that. It sounds pretty easy to get to work...so I will play around with that.

    FX card blacking out-

    I would suggest getting a PSU with a single 12v - like mine has 83 amps. yours seems to have multiple

    Fan Controller help.

    What good is only having an RPM sensor on a 66Db fan... Anyway I am notorious for jury rigging my computer to get it working for builds, but I don't think I am going to try any of the smart ideas that popped into my head this time. Just going to go grab some decent fans and order one of those...

    So that 1 wire going into the 3-pin is all it takes? lol gonna try this.... didn't work.

    Fan Controller help.

    its 1 wire into a 3-pin and 2 wires into a 4-pin molex. I've tried not even connecting the 3-pin and it still turns on with only the 2-pins in a 4-pin molex.

    Fan Controller help.

    I think he was referring to the Lamptron FC3. But yes I do have a huge grin on my face when I turn on these fans - speaking of which i'm gonna go do that right now. I should also mention each fan says 4.8 Amps

    Fan Controller help.

    Well the controller has an audible click off and feels well made - even the LED adjusts brightness with the position of the knob. I tried different molex connectors on the PSU and all resulted in the fan turning on even if the controller was off, on, or then 3-pin wasn't even connected. Also...
