Thanks for the info. I am running backups anyway just in case. It takes a couple of hours to backup all of the data but better safe than sorry. I got the board in this morning. I removed stock cooler to replace the thermal paste. Man I thought the workers the put the heatsinks on the dif mobo's were bad. Both the NB and the SB had thermal paste and a thermal pad on them. So I removed and put as5 on the nb and ac on the sb. Since the heatsink looks nice I thought I would try the stock one before thinking of pulling it for my aftermarket coolers. I should have it up and running this evening. One last question here. I see tha there are 8 fan connectors on the motherboard. That seems like quite a bit. I always went by the rule of not connecting a 120mm fan to the mobo. Is it safe to connect a 120mm fan to this motherboard?
