Lol... Well at least they have a good return policy it's better than the people that say: "Oh, were sorry our product has broken. Oh, no were very sorry but we can't send you a replacement, how about this coupon for a free Dairy Queen Blizzard instead. Have a nice day."

Yeah, it does. I am following what's printed on there directly: 1.9 volts. 5-5-5-18 timing. I contacted Corsair asking for replacement, though their offices are closed right now...

I'm running 2x2GB. It is set at 1.9 volts, 5-5-5-18 timings. I tested the "broken" stick of ram in a non-dual channel slot, and it still doesn't work. I tested the working stick of ram with Memtest for approximately 1 hour with out problems, I will test it more later.

I removed one stick of RAM, and my PC seems like it's running perfectly fine now. So does this mean I have a faulty stick of RAM? Should I send it back to Newegg asking for replacement?

The heat sink is around Luke warm when I feel it. And yes, I'm using the stock cooler. If I installed the the fan wrong (which I am more and more thinking I did) should I take the whole mother board out to re-install it? Also whenever I try to install the fan, I am always afraid of the mother...

PC Troubleshooting

Heh. Well, I solved the problem... Me being the stupid person I am, I didn't read the manual all the way, and so didn't notice the power spliter that came with the card. It split the 8800 GT's power supply into two molex plugs. Problem solved! YAY!

Building a PC, advice? ;)

I read the sticky... I am really just asking if the parts would work together, and if there are better parts I could've used. (For my price range). I guess I'll answer the questions anyways though... 1. What YOUR PC will be used for. That means what types of tasks you'll be...
