Also have digital read out for failure. Just dont for get to plug in speaker for the beeps. Thats what i did, have a maximus hero 7 motherboard (bad ass) I might say. And highly suggest doing this befor putting it in case.... Saves time if there is a concern. No hard drive needed and or operating system needed for ram,cpu motherboard compatability.

I have already verified ram, cpu, and mobo are working. will test the rest when the case and ssd arrive. also my monitors are mounted. both are 27 inch monitors. the left one is a standard lg, nothing special. the right is a benq 2720z which will go to 144hz!
