Cool so far, I think you should put one or two pictures of ALL the parts to save room and just make a summary of it instead, then as you assembly take pics of the major parts of the assembly. Cause i dont thin kyou really needed 4 pics of your psu no offense:) Looking forward to see the rest!

I'm with you here, i've never seen the point in watching unboxing. TBH build logs are pointless unless you're doing something custom.

Getting the pcie connectors to fit with my 4890 were sooooo hard....if there were on the side or a better location on the card it would have been much easier

No its not bad and it doesnt "bottleneck" , Im getting so tired of people using that word so wrong. Bottlenecking only occurs when a program/game requires a better cpu then whats being used. You only need a P4 or an Athlon Xp cpu to run the cards just fine but the games want something better. A X2 5600 is still a great little duel core cpu which plays any game just fine.

Looks great, is your GPU seated properly? everything tightly fitted? That's the only cause of the flashing lights problem I can think of. Hopefully it isnt too annoying, and does it only happen on certain resolutions?

its happening with everything i do...its just this constant horizontal flickering and depending on what background color i have its red black or white....for some reason when i load up L4D it wont do it at the screen with the valve in the back of his head but as soon as it shows the loading screen right after it goes crazy...im gonna try and take a video of it to show u guys

I'm guessing the issue is your power supply. Rosewill is a ghetto brand. I'd give that thing a few weeks tops before it goes "poof." Send it back and get a nice Antec, Corsair, or PC Power and Cooling PSU.

ive heard nothing but good reviews......hmm even if it gave atleast 550 watts thats still more then enough to power the 4890.....how does everyone else feel about this should i return the psu also?

Rosewill is a great budget brand. I don't know about their old PSU lineup, but their new offerings are good. I had a doa PSU from them, but no problem. I used their RMA and the next PSU worked great.

There could be a problem with your gpu, since its still new you could get it returned and sent a new one.

Its hard to tell in the video what that is exactly. Have you tried anything else on that monitor? There is amonitor here at work that does the exact same thing (from what I can see) and its the monitor, not the card.

I SOLVED THE PROBLEM! haha idk how i did it...but i took apart my whole rig and dusted everything even the PCIE2.0 slots with an air can...i then re wired everything to make sure everything was plugged in right. i then installed CCC9.5 drivers because HIS said that 9.6 was very unstable... after that i plugged in the 4890 into the other DVI port and there u go haha no more red lined all over....!!!!!
