    Hi, Looks great same motherboard as me, you might consider a matched quad channel ram kit as the 2x 8gb kit you have will only work in dual channel mode, your motherboard is best with quad channel ram but it should still work fine in dual channel mode., enjoy that awesome Core V71 it's a great case it's a hot summer here and my two gtx780s never get over 65c after hours of playing bf4☺

    I finally got all my parts, unfortunately the motherboard wasn't working. I finally got a replacement and guess what, it was the Rampage IV extreme instead of black! I am using it until I receive another replacement, sigh!

     

    I've managed to get a Hackintosh working almost flawlessly so far, with a geek bench score of just over 25,000 for multicore!

    I have managed an overclock of 4.5GHz at 1.4V but it seems to be heating up reaching 78 and peaking at 80C during geek bench stress test. Is that too high? I mounted the H110 on top, replacing the 120mm fan that came with the V71. I have it blowing air out, I am considering trying it inhaling instead, what do you think?

     

    Also, thank you for the RAM recommendation! I will just get another 16gb kit when I have the funds :D

     

    So far everything works so fast, the system boots up in mere seconds, and thats including opening up everything I had opened previously. 

    I have been web designing on a 2008 macbook for over a year and I feel godly in comparison now!
