Right. My fans finally arrived and I progressed to install them. I had to remove my GPU in the process to route some cables and, to my surprise, the motherboard refused to register it after I mounted it back. Took me an hour of wiggling it in and out, changing PCIe slots, I actually broke the clip on the PCIe1 slot while trying desperately get it off before it just magically started working again. o_O Don't you just hate it when you don't know what was actually wrong in the first place?
A side note; Do you know if Asrock Extreme 6 should let you install single craphics card in the second PCIe slot with nothing in the first main slot. Or is my lower PCIe broken? :/
