Yes, that's normal yo haha.

2 970's or 2 980's.

Yes, you will be able to use 1600 ddr3 ram at the same time with 1866 ddr3 ram. The 1866 ram will run at 1600 with no issues. Good luck with the build and I want to see pics when it's done

That temperature is excellent. I think you should at least overclock to 4GHz and keep an eye out for sales on a water cooler. Well good luck.

A new graphics card which I'll probably end up buying for myself lol. Oh and I want a second monitor.

It depends on how it smells and looks. I probably wouldn't eat it if it was a few weeks expired though.

1. Check seating of cooler 2. Check voltage What is your voltage on load?

Great disassembly guide to fix the mic issue. *claps*

Check voltage with http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html and report back to us.

He just want's advice dude lol.

What's the system specs your putting it into? Yeah, free shipping back. Well you can just say it didn't work on your PC. Just don't say it wasn't compatible or else they will think it was a buyer error.

If I was you I'd RMA the board and get a replacement. So, when you reboot from Windows itself not the reset button the case what happens?

If the GPU doesn't work you can return it for a full refund and free return shipping. Return it through Amazon not MSI

1. Check if the motherboard is updated to the most recent bios 2. Make sure it hasn't overclocked itself or something 3. Use your power supply on this PC and see if that fixes the problem Other options are RMA CPU if putting your power supply in this PC doesn't solve the problem or RMA both CPU and PSU

Any reason why? Just curious. AsRock makes one of the best budget motherboards.
