Quote from TIKITRADER:
It is always helpful to read the user guides first before starting the build.
Just what is necessary for the building part of the machine.
Note: a MB user guide goes into greater details than needed for the initial assembling. Read the necessary part to assemble,then remainder after built for adjusting.

Anyone who walks away with a little more info, or possibly a direction towards needed parts for their machine, maybe a new build, is the biggest thank you to everyone participating and sharing their knowledge.

So out of the eight mechanical slots four are x1 only, that's just silly. Slot 1 and 5 should be used in 2-way multi-GPU mode and with 32x lanes available up-to four cards can be used over PCIE 1, 3, 5 and 7.[/i]

Downloaded PC Probe II. Does that look right?
The CPU temperature on mine seemed kind of high! No wonder this room feels like a furnace! LOL
