  1. Would be the perfect Cpu to upgrade from the x58 platform. Original i7 920.
  2. 2 words: Power Consumption (or lack there of) I have a Zotac 400 series gpu and that thing guzzles power and produces heat like nobody's business.
  3. I managed to fix it, but not from the suggestions posted. Turns out it had something to do with Quick Start-Up being on. As soon as I disabled it, boot would proceed no problem. If anyone knows why that would be, let me know. Thanks for all the suggestions though.
  4. I re-installed Windows 8 a few weeks back to see if that would fix it, but it didn't work.
  5. Hi Linus Tech Tips forum members, I've been having a really annoying problem when ever I boot my computer. The boot up proceeds as followed: Power Button --> POST --> Windows 8 Logo --> Black Screen with Cursor The boot does not proceed. The only way I can get my computer to boot is by hard resetting (reset button), having the computer POST again, Windows 8 Logo pops up, and then the Log In screen appears. If anyone is experiencing the same issue or someone who has solved this problem, please help. Thanks, HalfofaLife
