Does it work if you use the other RAM slots?

What AMD Catalyst drivers are you using?

What's your power supply?

I found a similar build to yours at Logical Increments.

Logical Increments have some awesome PC Builds, try sharing your ideas and thoughts.

I agree, I am planning to replace my Aerocool PSU as well, as it sometimes gets too noisy for me, a 650W Corsair, Enermax, Antec, Seasonic, NZXT is enough for a single card setup like yours. Builds from Logical Increments even use around 550W to 600W on a single card system.

I'd recommend an NZXT Hale82 750W Modular @ $118 you'll get a PSU that was made by Seasonic PSU manufacturers and modular cabling. amazon link is here. Not that there's something wrong with XFX, but brands like Seasonic, NZXT (Hales series), Corsair are time-tested brands.

Nice build! Yup that PSU should do the trick. For the CPU Cooler, have you considered a Corsair H80, H80i or H100, H100i? And what about Ducky Keyboards and Corsair's Mechanical Keyboards? :D I found a similar build like yours from Logical Increments, share your build ideas.

Everything in your system is practically new except your HDD and monitor right? EVGA GeForce GT610 is the original GPU? What GPU did you replace it with, a replacement 610? 1. Check all connections, sata cables, sata power cables, front i/o panel cables, motherboard's power cable (your...

You can 1. turn off computer 2. unplug the cables from the wall outlet and the psu cable from the psu 3. touch the psu 4. go do your thing

Nice choice, Samsung's SSDs are great! If your Chassis comes with HDD/SSD mounting brackets they would fit there easily. SSDs somewhat has the same screw holes like an HDD, 2 on each side, and 4 on the bottom, whichever way you want to mount it. Or you can use a double-sided tape and stick it...

Giving an extra budget on assuring that you have a good motherboard, and graphics card will suite you. Since you're going to use your system for gaming, I suggest cutting some budget on not getting the highest CPU model, instead get the one below the fastest/latest/highest model of CPU available...

If you're building a system from scratch, 1st build, or you have a decent budget, I'd recommend you'd go Intel.

The NZXT Phantom is a good full tower case, other manufacturers you might want to look into, Corsair, Cooler Master, Fractal Design. Corsair and Cooler Master's line of full tower cases are good. Fractal Design makes good and reliable cases, and they have this new sound dampening cloth/fabric in...
