I swear sometimes I just can't spot the obvious solution. I will just use the stock cooler during the bench testing, thank you for reminding me about it, I brain farted there for a bit lol.

@Liquidpain...Very nice! Looks pretty clean!
Good idea. Both the stock and h80 heatsink should have preapplied TIM. Might want to have something like artic silver cleaner so you can make sure your CPU is clean between mounts. I am curious why you would want to test the build outside of the case first.

I just use alcohol and coffee filters to clean TIM up. Works great with no fiber lint or anything.

I want to make sure everything post before I put it all in the case. It would be a royal pain in the butt to get everything in the case and something not posting.

Well its probably good practice, but inside or not each part is pretty easy to remove, especially in a spacious case like the 600T. Just make sure youre working on something that the mobo won't ground out on, and your using good ESD technique. Especially when you are handling your ram. Your board has pretty good diagnostic read outs so I am sure it will go smooth.
