I have a huge problem 
i bought the thermaltake to replace the seasonic 500 that i had everything was working fine with the seasonic
also bought the noctua to replace the stock intel cooler also working fine
and when i turned on the pc the memok light turned on so i pressed it until it started to blink
and it was like that for 30 minutes and it didn't work
could it revert to default bios where it doesn't recognize the ram anymore or do i have a different problem
haven't tried the psu on a different system yet

Try booting with only 1 stick of ram.

 

Also, seasonic psus are awesome and thermaltake is best avoided if other options are available for psus..

did you move the ram to a different slot to avoid it hitting the NHD14?

 

that could be your problem, also, just pop the ram out and pop it back in again.

 

if it got jostled when you were mucking about in there it might have lost it's connection just a bit in the slot.

Well one thing buying thermal take PSU is big mistake. All there PSU are garbage. If you want quality get antec or corsair all series exceptbgs and CX they are junk. I has a CX 750 work great for a month and then I got loud coil whine from from PSU as it was degrading. Got bad enough to make my GPU whine really loud since it was lacking power. Anyhow about the ram try one stick like people said. Also try all slots to cause you could have a defective slot on your main board. Also run mem test on it. Also great bundled software is hiren boot CD. Its a great software for diagnosing many things.

Hmm oh how many slots do you have. Is all your ram sticks the same. Like clock speeds and all. Seems like your main board is gone bad. I would blame the PSU and change it since I don't trust thermal take. To much bad rep. Could be one reason why your main board is screwy. Get like a corsair tx750.
