So no post no beep FF code huh.  Well since you have tried everything and the only thing you do have a warranty on is the CPU i suggest you RMA it.  As for the school work you have on your drive there is software to recover data from drives.  RMA the CPU no you most likely will not and cannot recieve a ivy bridge in its place most likely it will be a i7 900 series whatever intel has on hand.  If after RMAing the CPU it still does not post then most likely something got burnt up when you were overclocking.  This is why i never use eleet to change my voltages always in BIOS.  so if new CPU doesnt  Post next step is the Board.  Either find someone with a extra x58 board or buy one from the market place or off ebay.  New board new cpu doesnt post move to the next thing RAM.. RMA it most ram carries a lifetime warranty.  New board new RAM still no post time to look at a new PSU most carry a 5 year warranty or more.  at this point you have eliminated all known causes of the issue.  This is the best advice i can offer you.   Ive had no post no beeps before but usually a clear CMOS and im back in business.  Most of them are related to too little Vcore or incorrect memory timings.  
 
Also looking at your specs you have dominators they are lifetime warrantied.  So RMA your CPU and RAM at the same time.  its possible while you were OCing you may have damaged the RAM.  Sorry i have no clear cut solution.  So in summary RMA the CPU and RAM first.  then move on from there to RMA other things.  Dont worry about the data like i said there is programs to retrieve that stuff if you cannot get your x58 back running.  But i am sure after the CPU and RAM are changed itll fire back up. 
 
try to stay calm too getting angry doesnt help the PC doesnt care if you are mad or upset it wont help.  Best to stay calm and thinking about things.   good luck post back or PM me should you need further assistance.  Ive helped a lot of people fix random issues and overclocking the hell out of their rigs.

rjohnson your quite aware that i screwed up the overclock settings, i know thats what did me in. I KNOW NOTHING IS WRONG WITH MY HARDWARE, i know this for a fact guys. my computer works..... i lower the voltage and it doesn't turn on, its very unlikely to be a coincidence. 
I know its that DAM bios screwing with me.  ANYWAYS< they have these bios chip replacements right? can i just change my bios chip and it should solve the problem....

If clearing CMOS didnt work its not your BIOS.   Clearing CMOS resets everything to default.  I highly doubt when you lower the voltage is "broke" your bios chip.  If you think its the BIOS chip look at the bottom of your board and look for a jumper labeled BIOS move the jump it will switch to the backup BIOS chip.  Each board has one  hardwired to it another in a socket.  
 
No one is going to help you if you keep insisting nothing is wrong with your hardware.  If nothing was wrong your PC would post and run.   You turning down the voltages on eleet then rebooting would have been fixed by clearing CMOS.   Since clearing CMOS did not fix it then its not BIOS related.  
 
So good luck.  Sorry to hear you don't care what any of us have to say.  Why do you bother asking for help when you dont listen to any of us anyway?

Hi. Im new here and im having EXACTLY the same problem. I lowered muy voltages with. E-leet and now my x-58 sli3 dont boot. I have tried clear CMOS and nothing. Anyone knows how i can fix this? I had hopes with this forum but I see Azulon1 not says more about this problem...
 
 
Sorry for my bad english and thanks for any idea you can give me.

1. Turn off your PSU and disconnect the power plug from the outlet.
2. Remove the CMOS battery. 
3. Press and hold the CLEAR CMOS button for 30 seconds.
4. Leave the CMOS battery out for 15 minutes.
5. Reinstall the CMOS battery.
6. Plug in your PSU and see if you can boot.

Thanks HeavyHemi,  I will try to make all steps exactly this way. I hope this still maybe can be fixed.

No good luck. I have reset the CMOS and nothing. Board not responding except the two/tree leds from right side (blue, green, yellow) and Fans starting, but no display in double 88 led, no beep, nothing. Power Button on Board seems off (not red light) and Reset Button has Yellow Light. No one of both seems to work afther power on. I had to power off the mainboard using Power Unit ON/OFF button.
 
Now Im getting some more info about this.
 
I have find that the Motherboard shows LED "FF" working if I take the CPU OUT of the Shockect (no CPU in Motherboard). Power Button on MB seems to Work too.
 
I put the CPU on Motherboard, with the CPU-FAN off, and the CPU is COLD, absolutely COLD. It is not getting warm when I switch on the MB.
 
- Maybe MB is Broken and the CPU is not getting Power? Then... Why when CPU is connected on the MB, the MB not shows "FF"?
- Maybe the CPU is broken? Its cold like Norht Pole.
 
I have tried 2 diferents Power Units and the two are fine and Works perfect in my other old PC.
 
¿Do you think is MB o may be its a CPU problem?
 
Thanks in advance and Happy Christmass to all of you.

First thing I would check is the socket. Bent pins can sometimes be hard to spot but they can cause problems. If there are no bent pins then I would say its either the motherboard or cpu but without a spare motherboard/cpu its hard to tell which one.

Thanks for all your help. Finaly I´ve found a PC local store here in my city that can helpme. They have one 1366 motherboard and this days they will tell me if the fault is on the CPU or on MB. I will post here when I know more about all of this.
