Here's my specs and my story:
AMD FX-4100 Zambezi 3.6GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 95W Quad-Core
XFX Double D HD-687A-ZDFC Radeon HD 6870 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI
G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666)
ASUS M5a97 AMD+ SATA 6Gb/s ATX AMD Motherboard
HITACHI HDS721050CLA362 (0F10381) 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive
Thermaltake 550w Power SUpply ( SLI & Crossfire ready ).
Okay. Here's my story. First and foremost I'd like to introduce myself. I've built my first computer back in 2006 of April. My first comp was a Dual Core x2 4400+, which was around 300 dollars back then! My Asus A8n-32 last a long time too, but was my second board, because the one I first got was an Asus-A8n, which lasted me a month. The 550w Power Supply still powers up the Radeon I'm currently using which works! The HDD Hitachi works as well! ( Gonna' test it out tonight just incase if it needs RMA too ).
It's just the motherboard I bought which was an M5a97. When I first got it, It wouldn't post. Me thinking probably it was the processor, because they needed an update. But ti comes to find out that the mobo is updated. Still wouldn't post. Fans, everything will be on, but that mobo. So I RMA'd everything including the ram. Just waiting for it to come. Do you think I'm all set up? My PSU works, my HDD works, My Video card works. The only I didn't test out was the CPU and Ram on another computer, because let's face it. My out of money on this PC and I've gotta' pay bills. I was gonna' use the new PC for entertainment and video editing. What you guys think?
