Well, its been a while since I've seen the qx9770 actually working. Last time I tried to use it, I got a straight FF on the 790i Ultra SLI mobo.
The beggining of the trouble started when running the QX9770 on water with the 790i FTW motherboard and a vreg burnt up in smoke. More than likely it took the $1500 processor with it.
Today, I figured I'd give it another go. So far I get the top portion of the boot screen and when it hits the cpu ID section of the boot screen it reboots. So basically, I'm getting a reboot cycle.
I'm trying different ram modules now to see if I can coax her back to life. 90% sure its a gonner
