Built the hardware last night, powered on and the bloody thing switched off again. Don't tell the wife!
Anyway, looks like my DVD burner may be the cause after all this....

After much messing around (long story but my disks wouldn't work with Win7 in UEFI mode and had to be re-partitioned) I got the system built and installed yesterday. Got all my old data copied across. Going to get steam up and running tonight so hopefully will be on the servers very soon.

Well I mange to play for a minute last night before having to deal with a soggy child.
I have broken the 300 fps barrier on Counter Strike with all settings maxed out.

Very happy boy :dancey: Certainly better than the 40 fps I got with my old CPU, I can now use the potential of my graphics card fully.

Now I need to pay off the overdraft so I can get me some recent games :rockon:
