I did RMA the XFX board (already got my $ back) I have since then have pretty much given-up on building PC's, it seems when I try to update them for myself something goes horribly wrong. But when I build them for other people they work fantastic.

I was thinking about ordering another of my old DP965LT Intel boards (I call it ol' faithful caus it has saved my ass both times the ECS and XFX boards failed) and putting that in my new case with a ArcticFreezer 7 pro (pin-model) and hoping to god it operates succesfully.

However, I really have just lost the motivation for myself with motherboards...I dont understand why they will work for everyone else (even when I build them for others) except for me.
