Got it up and running, Beast mode.

Getting all the drivers installed now, about to go to sleep. 6 hours. I put it all together could not for the life of me figure out why it was not turning on, I read the MOBO manual back to front, PSU manual back to front, So on and so on. I finally figured it out...

My 1200 watt PSU was not getting enough power from my house... My PC is a true beast apparently or I am a bad at household electrification (I wired my house)

Will post pictures soon. I need to Post them to PCPartpicker as well. Once I get all the drivers and whatnot installed, Ill start on all my game downloads.

I cannot thank you guys enough for the tips and help you guys provided me.

I have work at 5pm, I get off at 11 or so, Ill be on and see if I can get everything else going and upto speed.

Also I need to figure out why my 2TB HDD isnt showing up, It sees it on the Bios but not on windows, I suppose I need to get drivers for it.

1200 watts is a tremendous amount of power. Home outlets are either 15 or 20 amps, supporting a ~1600 or ~2200 watt load.
If your circut was unable to supply enough current you would trip a breaker or cause a fire.

For example, my single GTX770, OC'd i5-3750K rig barely hits 420 watts with two 23" monitors at peak.
I share an outlet with a second PC of similar build, with an additional two monitors and a laser printer on a 15 amp breaker and have had no past issues.

For your 2TB hdd problem, which sata port are you using? Is it one which uses a non-intel chipset? In that case, you likely require an additional driver for the sata controller.

I figured it out, I just had to add it, followed some steps provided by Microsoft to get it to show up, I'm trying to get it to where things that get installed, install to that 2TB not the SsD. I'm at work right now, so I'll have to figure it out when I get home

Oh, I have an issue where every so often, if my leg happens to be touching the PC, it shocks me. O_O I tried looking for the cause, and nothing..

Well after some trouble shooting, I am 75 percent sure it is that the Power going into all my components is to much. I am getting one of those power strips that has a Battery and power control management, incase power outtage and so forth.
