I recommend Swiftech Polaris 120. For some it blocks a ram slot with tall ram but its also 8mm shorter than the 212. The 212 wouldn't fit in my case and the Polaris performs great.
http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/293696-30-asus-p8z68-restart-problem-startup The last reply says: "I know how to fix this problem for anyone with an ASUS P8Z68 V PRO! i had the same problem and fixed it in about 15 seconds. My computer would start up then shut down then start up just like yours. All you have to do is go into the AI tweaker in your BIOS and change the settings to XMP instead of auto. XMP runs your system great i have the same build" Hope that helps you!
I use to have a Razer deathadder (my laptop broke the usb) and then I got a Tt esports black but its not as good (even though it's cheaper). I'll probably get a deathadder in the future. For keyboards I can't speak for gaming ones.
If you like star wars sure! I enjoyed it back in the day. The campaigns aren't too bad and there are some good mods out there. The only thing is the ground combat isn't that fun, but the space combat makes up for it.
So did you buy this already or are you planning to? Cause if you havent bought it yet go 1155 motherboard and i5 2500k for gaming. Unless you like throwing money away.
Edit: If you like throwing money away then do this ^^ and buy two GTX 580s instead of one 6970.
The stock cooler does not need thermal paste. It's already pre-applied on the stock cooler that comes with the cpu. The paste you applied is probably the cause because you don't need a lot of it. Just use the pre-applied stuff.
Clean the paste you applied off with isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) higher the percent the better and use a lint free cloth (cloth that comes with glasses). Don't need a lot of it just put some on the cloth, then wipe off the paste.
