Also maybe the wrong videocard?

I'm not familiar with high end gaming computers and how they spec out and or how they work compared to a normal non-gaming computer.

I would guess that gaming computers would use differently spec'd parts compared to a non-gaming computer and maybe that was my problem?
Normally, gamming computers have more big cabinets, robust PSU, better ventilation and a motherboard with a lot of slots, for using 2 videocards + soundcard etc, and accepts hi-end CPU, due to choosen chipset. Most are prepared to accept the lowest end RAM for compatibilities (is not needed to test with hi-spec RAM), but sometimes yes, incompatibilities can occur.
