will help verifying problems with the motherboard and will help me to know if the ram, hhd or something else is the problem?

Sounds like it is bad...I have used mine on 2 MSI boards and 3 asus boards and have had readouts on all to where I could fix the problem.

Check PS. New does not mean good, Check memory chips by inserting only one at a time (I have had bad memory out of the box cause the same issue). Remove MOBO and fire it on table top with minimum items connected.I built two computers with these cases.. no issues.

don't worry about the motherboard, just worry about buying the right bridge from the evga website, or call them and give them your style of card and ask which 1 fits

I used this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231589 I didn't actually have much luck with this board (I'm assuming that's because it was open box though.) Are you manually clocking or RAM or just using the X.M.P.? My board was fine using the X.M.P. settings.

Yes, you will need to update BIOS. Dude, my advice would be to stay away from that mabo. ;-)

No, this is AMD CPU based MB. Supports the new 4-8 core processors. It does not have a socket that supports Sandy Bridge or Intel K processors.

I would not be able to exactly respond to that because I use a asus z87 pro motherboard and I do not understand what the problem with the gigabyte motherboards and this psu were having...I would check on google and I am sure if you look into some more recent forums and or threads you will get your answer. I will even take a gander seeing as I have the day off and then I will get back to you about when I find out about the motherboards.

Ditto, i have this memory and motherboard combination and there are problems with it at all.

I ready tested and yes is support Ivy-Bridge-E out of the box, bud I recommending upgrade just in case.

Exactly. Asus Bios managment makes it a snap. Verify before updating you may already have the lastest installed.

Did you just exchanged yours? Mine also has a DOA broad com chip. I'm currently talking with Asus and they're getting back to me with a solution.

I too would go with gig, just returned an asus mobo for being doa, newegg tech aggreed ! Newegg is not the company it used to be either - which is why I am here :-)

Laura, I'm not sure if it's the newest board but the price seems expensive. I just replaced the mother board on my salt system for $75.00. with a two year warranty. I sent the whole box to the repairman and he sent it back with the new board installed in five days for $75.00. I will try to find the vendor on Amazon and send you the info.
