There's an EZ Plug that I haven't put anything in, also another EATX 4 pin hole that I'm not sure if I have to use.

Hi Maths. You don't need anything in the EZ plug (unless really overclocking an SLI/X-fire setup) or the 4 pin additional CPU plug near the RAM slots.

If you have connected everything else, take out everything but 1 stick of RAM. Only plug in essentials like mouse, keyboard and screen and try to boot. What code do you get?
 
I think long term I will look out for a PSU+GPU deal as mine is getting pretty old. I would agree they would make an overclock stable where others may flake. Ideally the 7990 and free psu would be great but I dont have the funds.

Thanks Guys, looks better in the flesh, looking at my tubing it seems a bit messy. The coolant is white 'obviously' in clear tubing I might add some dye to it at some point.

I've added a spot cool fan over the VRM's and a soundblaster z. Pretty much set now for a while.
