Welp i got my first half of products from newegg today. More items coming in tomorrow and thursday.
UPS must have dropped my thermal artic 5 paste, so i call newegg and they are sending me another one.

I have a work desktop now i use and got tired of turning on sli to play games so i decided to buy a gaming rig.

Here is the work rig:

Always bought these brands and never failed me. My work computer is an AMD system, this is my first intel system build.

My old computer is all corsair, evga, asus.
Gotta love EVGA, not a fan of corsair memory though, i prefer mushkin, gskill, patriot, or kingston.
 
Just put the basic items together. Putting the cpu cooler on was fun!.. haha

Nice board and RAM btw...:D I have an EVGA GTX 260 that
looks just like your 285.

Is it just me or your ram isn't correctly installed.

To have triple channel you need to put on one ram module per black slot on you MB
