Is my mobo screwed up?

Ultimately, all these comments boil down to "contact tech support". Check with EVGA to see if the RAMs absence from their approved list is an issue (some times its just not listed). Check with Corsair to see if they are aware of any known issues. If both give you the green light RMA the board. If not, get some new RAM that is on the list. If that still doens't work, I'm guess its the PSU, in which case you may want to try to get an RMA for that.

limefc:
RAM compatibility lists are checklists of tested parts. RAM on the list basically means that this RAM was tested with the board, JEDEC and/or XMP profile was properly loaded and the RAM was autoconfigured.

Basically it means fuckin' nothing. Would be useful if it was comprehensible and only contained RAM that didn't work but alas nobody has the time to test all the different RAM in the world.

I am surprised that the Vengeance wasn't on their. I would think that EVGA would test all "gamer" RAM, which the Vengeance falls into. That does suggest that it didn't make it, but it also could be that they simply didn't test it.

limefc:
The "Vengeance" RAM is XMS3 with obnoxious heatsinks.

fixed.

I have their XMS3 RAM, its tested at 2000MHz and I can verify that it works at speeds of at least 2166 (or whatever it is) without loosening the timing.
