So, the the computer actually stopped working after day 3. I really was sure it was the mobo as the computer would boot normally with the new one but nope. Just wouldn't turn on again after a few days. So of course I RMA'd the PSU and lo and behold that was the problem. Looks like you were all...
Solved...
Looks like it was a bad motherboard after all. I put it the new motherboard and it starts up and runs everything as it should be. I did some a small 5 minute prime95 test to stress it a bit and everything seems normal. Asrock will be RMA'ing the board and I'll have everything back to...
Well to be fair in 10 years of home built PC's this is the first mobo or PSU to go bad on me. And I contacted Asrock and was pleasantly surprised when they contacted me within 4 hours AND approved my RMA request. Plus I save several hundred dollars buying each component on sale, get components...
Thanks for the replies. Well if it is the PSU it's got quite the warranty from EVGA so I know it is covered at least. I already sent a request to Asrock but I was not looking forward to dealing with them. I suppose I'll start the RMA process with EVGA to get the ball rolling there too.
Fairly sure it's a dead mobo but would like confirmation.

So, I've gone through the steps, breadboarded the computer, and determined the all components are working except the mobo or the PSU. The PSU turns on and runs a fan but I've heard that...
Two things that usually fix this... go to your nvidia control panel and for your global 3D settings make sure adaptive sync is enabled as well as limiting pre-rendered frames to 1. Then go to your G-sync menu on your left and uncheck the g-sync in windowed mode if you're using fullscreen, or...
Well, if you can afford it, they make a 1440p IPS G-Sync monitor for $700. It's probably the best gaming monitor you can buy atm. http://www.amazon.com/Asus-PG278Q-27-Inch-G-SYNC-Monitor/dp/B00MSOND8C
Undervolting is just like overclocking but in reverse. This won't affect performance as you're not changing the clocks though. Setting the power limit lower is a good idea though that's more likely to keep temps down way better in 3D mode without losing any stability.
Since this modifies the .exe would it be bad to use it in a multiplayer game like Star Wars: Battlefront? I really don't wanna get a smack down from BattleEye for using a visual mod.
Have you seen that butt? Clearly needs 64x tessellation. But seriously, it's probably another game just tessellating everything to excessive levels to make AMD cards perform worse.
