  1. Just checked the pins, they're all good, cpu was in great physical looking shape, no issues with seepage of thermal compound or anything.. Reseated everything with no change. I decided to look a bit deeper at the mobo, doesn't seem to have any blown or leaky caps or anything visually wrong.. I'm about to rip it out and get a better look at the back and all. Sounds stupid, but I guess when the spill happened.. I got lucky it hit really only the graphics card.. Even if it was such a little amount and it only hit the pci power which also killed the psu.. But not as trace at all anywhere else fortunately so far... The more I dig.. The more I think somehow it may have over voted the pci slot or something. But I also tried new sata cords, different slots on the mobo, nothing. Also jumped the psu to power on with the 24pin.. Same thing as it plugged in. So mobo out it is I guess lol.
  2. I'll double check that as well... Cpu is the only thing I haven't removed from the board itself. I haven't touched it in years since it was always at a low temp and low usage life due to the cooler. Be a good time to change the thermal compound too I guess, been meaning to lol One weird thing that happened before all of this.. Not sure which way it'd point if it's related.. I tried to redo my overclock (took it to base clock when I let someone use the computer), and it wouldn't let me manually hold any overclock.. So I tried the oc genie since it only brought it up about. .4ghz... And it wouldn't make it past the bios giving an error it didn't hold the oc.. But always booted just fine stock.. And with turbo on (off while oc of course) But I'll have to check the pins in about two hours when I get home from work
  3. There's a couple under the gpu, such as the "sound blaster" led and what not.. But nothing else that was ever on.. That was on like normal though.. Fortunately for normal use the gpu covers that white led lol. I'll try some other cables again if I can find anymore. I believe I still have a brand new sata and a couple others in their package, but gotta dig up again.
  4. No idea why the video went verticle. Guess the note 10 is stupid with YouTube lol The hdd activity light is on and all.. But I've also tried new cables all around. I hope it's not the cpu.. It's been a trusty little guy for a while now.
  5. Hey guys, been a long time since I've been on the forums.. Life got in the way and all.. But I need your help! Skip to the bottom for what I've tried if you don't want to read a book. Short explaination.. I'm in the military so I didn't use my computer often, let my buddy's wife use it.. I kept all my drives in a box.. It worked great while she used it... Here in May, I asked for it back.. Thing wouldn't start.. Thought it was the power supply because of its age.. Tested with my buddy's power supply.. No change.. Cleared cmos etc.. Nothing.. Tried his ssd.. It worked.. So my ssd died.. No biggie.. Time for an upgrade anywho. Got a 1TB SanDisk ssd.. Cool.. Works for about two months.. Then my dog spills a drink into the computer while it's on.. Thing is dead.. Tear it down.. Clean it all up hoping it's good.. PSU officially dead now, and my graphics card litterly caught fire when thrown in another system.. Fast forward about a few weeks.. I grab a known good powersupply and my super old GPU from my buddy a few states away.. Computer went in a weird boot loop.. Cleared cmos a few times.. Finally starts up.. Then I forgot I needed a different driver when I booted a game.. Bsod.. Booted right back up.. Clean install of driver.. And we're good for like a week.. Then I left a game open after testing how garbage my old GPU was lol.. Bsod.. Kernal error or something.. Didn't see it well.. No its back in the weird boot loop. Things I've tried this time.. Reseating all the ram, 1 stick at a time Reseating the GPU, and different pci power cords, Removing drives, new sata connectors as well Moving fans around in the headers, Cmos clearing again which caused the new issue.. Computer specs : Cpu: i5 4670k PSU: corsair gs600 (was a corsair cx600) GPU: evga 550ti (was a msi 980) Mobo: msi z87-g43 gaming Ssd: 1tb San disk (was Kingston 120gb) Hdd: 1tb Seagate barracuda Cooler: corsair h100i pull config Misc stuff in system: wifi card in pci slot Mouse cm Strom something Keyboard cm storm rapid I brown switches I'm thinking my MOBO may be dead.. But my cpu cooler, fans, and hdd seem to spin all fine and light up etc, but no booting (all different types of display cables were used to rule that out) I'm uploading a video to YouTube.. But since I can't use my wired gigabit.. May take a bit.. I'll add below once uploaded. Any reply is appreciated guys.
  6. I have my 4670k to 4.2 I used my bios OC stuff
  7. I'd consider an e30 a classic by now, maybe not quite a "Classic car" but still a classic.. kinda a grey area lol. I'd count it. Looks pretty cool too
  8. Both some mighty fine looking Vessels. I wish I could afford to have multiple classic cars. Pictures just don't do the justice of how they actually look, lol. I have pictures I JUST took of my caddy if anyone's interested.. It's kinda beat up looking, plenty of surface rust that I need to finish sanding, and all the chrome being off since it was stored. ^ I'm the only one I know that sees it's potential lol.
  9. I just walked out to my garage and thought "Hey I wonder if any of the tons of people on LTT forums like classic cars!" I have a 1963 Cadillac Convertible that I have been working on for sometime now, and I just can't wait until It's done! What it will look like finished: HERE!!!!! but with a black convertible top. Anyone else have a classic car, restoration project, or even just like classic cars and talking about them?

    Okay this is going to be more of a discussion on the subject. I was thinking when I move out and own my own house (I'm 18 so that's quite a while from now), that I would run wired in my walls and have hubs in convenient locations like smart TV's and where I might sit with a laptop. I was thinking of have like 4 or 6 port wall plates and run maybe like 20 cables total just for overkill. The reason I say this is more of just a discussion is because I'm the only one in my house right now that would find it useful since I have the only wired connection and our Router sends even a 5ghz Band decently through the house after I relocated it. So that rules out a WiFi repeater. My thoughts of how I would do it are: Get 500ft of CAT6 cable, bunch of the crimp ends and keystones and do it all myself. Run them straight down (My room is above our Living room with a home entertainment system), Run one out the wall to outside to take over the old phone line that has a Cat5e running to a perfect spot for a Wifi repeater, and possibly somewhere else for a home office and printer and maybe another smart TV. That and then replace the current cable coaxial with a blank wallplate and put a coaxial keystone in a 6 port plate. I think it would actually look very nice as our house already has surround sound cables in the wall in the right spots that we actually already use. Kill all the cable build up and then it would look beautiful. What do you guys think about this kind of thing? Ever Worth it? or just Get an AC router and just use wifi everywhere. total cost for FIRST time supplies to run cable came out to around 350 for what I found on amazon. http://smile.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2QVKEH07ER10E/ref=cm_wl_rlist_go_o?
