Thread tittle is name of the mobo I just received last week. Was my first time build and went off without a hitch.. Come a week later, I felt that my PSU was weak so i upgraded to a Corsair GS700W PSU and the time I was going to put it in my computer began to slip into the boot loop.. At first it was to the actual BIOS then after the forth boot it went to being one second on an about three seconds off.. I've looked around, spent all day stripping computer building checking etc.. I feel it's either the mobo or possibly my CPU (i 2500k) with stock hsf.. I've honestly given up today tempted to throw it out the window an bury it in snow. An I've gotten it in a bundle off newegg and I believe (where I have the boxes at other houes) the cpu plastic chip it came with was thrown away so I believe I can't RMA it back....

Everything except the new PSU, also a netgear wireless adapter(USB) since the comcast modem is still downstairs.
