Well it seems I will have to sell the Strider 1500, it keeps blowing the power plugs of my apartment, sad face.

I find it highly unreliable then; well for my situation.

It seems I will seek a smaller PSU just like the Antrec Quattro 1000 I use in the Dual OpteronDP 2435 D0, So I will have to sell it or trade it with someone that can use it, sigh


That sucks, sorry to hear. I have the same PSU in my SR-2. I don't blow breakers, but when I had 2 470's oc'ed with a 460 in there with the E5620's oc'ed I had random shutdown issues with mine. Only when CPU's and GPU's were under full load. Figured that one of the 460's PCI-E connector was connected to the CPU rail. Tried balancing the load differently and it didn't help either. Bit of a bummer for such an awesome PSU.

Just a bad design me thinks there are plenty other PSU's that don't have this issue, oh well Antec & Enermax gave me much better experiences, oh well, it's always good to find out what PSU's I will need to avoid for a next build.

Well built in the Seasonic Platinum X 1KW PSU , I turn on the system and it keeps on auto rebooting specs in short:
 
Intel Core i7 3820
EVGA X79 FTW
4x 4GB PC3-12800 KIngston Hyper-X3 Genesis
EVGA GTX 680 SC Signature Edition 2GB
Corsair Force3 240GB SSD
Auzentech X-Fi Forte 7.1
 
I have no idea why this is happening but it seems I am already having issues in 1CPU land, sigh, I just hope it's nothing critical.
The post debuggers shows FF constantly when it turns on, but to some point it turns off and turns on again, as in an automated mode, I just don't understand this kind of odd behavior.

this is first boot up btw so no OS no OC's no nothing.  I do have the Primary CPU 8 pin power connector & Secondary CPU 4+4 pin power connectors enabled, I dunno if the secondary was needed though.
 
Most 2CPU mobo's I have worked with had 1x pin +1x 4 pin for secondary, I always connected secondaries with my 2CPU builds, due to that I connected it on this mobo also.
 
Great news guys!!!!
 
I got it working I reset CMOS and switched to the middle Bios mode hah it works with the 3820! thx for the mail though :)
 
Anyways special thanks to RuffeDK for helping me out!

xDDDDDDDDDD Here some pics to show you guys the finishing touch certainly shows it's self here, so yeah meet Dacentrurus 2012!

 
Here a shot of him without the flasher :)

 
And here all my main systems! All the cases are Lian Li and all the VGA cards are EVGA GeForce based !

 
So there you go people as promised I did complete this system, but dang, I never had such a complicated build in my entire life the Tyr is a real pain to work with, but in the end all the hard work and worrying does pay off, the Tyr PC-X2000B is a design case and yeah the design is indeed something of great beauty my friends of EVGA.
 
But as posted before I don't advise anyone this case for a simple build, just a reminder there 
 
Here another photo I made:

 
Dacentrurus really fits in, although I plan to add one more blue light in the top, because all the liight mass as you can see is in the bottom
 
Here an updated picture of Dacentrurus'es Sea of Colours:

 
And here a video of this new system runnign some trance with my Dual OpteronDP 285 E6 with it's EVGA GTX 480 in the middle :)

Yeah thanks 1MadGrunt for replying 
 
Anyways I added one better photo of the system it's self and even a video to impress my work, I have worked 19 hours non stop last night to complete Dacentrurus, I am just surprised I have no BR either
 
The mobo is EVGA their X79 FTW, the VGA card is EVGA also, their GTX 680 SC Signature Edition 2GB ...
 
Maybe I will have to go Supermicro again or so, I dunno what I have done wrong here

Many, many thanks RuffeDK & Zophar
 
Well I have to admit that Dacentrurus is very quiet, probably as quiet or even quieter than my Dell XPS 15 laptop, I am really amazed on how silent a high end PC really can be :)
 
Do any of you have any idea's where I can find a good DX 11.1 and OpenGL 4.2 Tech demo to test the GK104 to it's utmost potentials? That demo which NV used to demo the GK110 also looked interesting I wonder if GK104 can pull that one off also, that is if I can get it from some place
