q Code help

Pacis

I recently built a rig and I am constantly getting q codes on the led read out. Ranging from 31-36 38, 40, 41,42, 43, 46.
The computer boots just fine and has been running fine for a couple days now. Its just the codes are worrying to me.
Any help would be appreciated.

The specs are as follows
Asus maximus VI impact
Intel I5 4670k
gskill ripjaw x 2400
evga gtx760
corsair cs750m

Just as corsair said, qcodes arnt always bad, as you see in the manual, it basically gives you a visual of what the motherboard is currently doing, as long as it doesn't freeze on one of them you should be good

Also during normal usage A0 should be displayed as that's the last code for when the UEFI hands off to the OS

Thanks for the replies. It usually settles on q code 42 lately. I don't think i'm going to let it bother me, the computer runs fine.
