Thanks for the look.
A while back I had some issues with my new build as seen here:
Maximus Formula Issues - Overclockers Forums
I also called ASUS and the tech seemed to think the PSU was my problem. This is what I have now:
Newegg.com - CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX 520W ATX12V v2.2 and EPS12V 2.91 Power Supply 100 - 240 V UL, CUL, CE, CB, FCC Class B, TUV, CCC, C-tick - Power Supplies
I got the computer to where it was stable, but every 4 or 5 startups, it would hang while booting requiring a hard restart. I lived with it like that for a few months, but now I get issues when I am running graphic intensive programs. Usually I get an error message along the lines of being unable to read a file.
The HDD was switched out as I thought initially that was the issue.
I have since updated my mobo BIOS and GPU drivers and restored default BIOS settings.
As far as I can tell now my issue lies within the mobo, RAM or CPU. Unfortunately no utilities can identify any issues. My plan over the course of the next few months is to start swapping out components.
Thanks again for your time.
Andy
