The problems I was having overclocking my gamer went away as soon as I switched out the 965 for the 975 I had laying around.

Guess I gotta RMA the 965 :clapping:

I ... ummm.. couldn't remember where the other one was :blush: I'll search

I'm thinking it was titles something like "opinions please" but I'll be damned if I can find it:Dizzy: searched posts and threads and no sign of it...

Maybe just delete this one and if I find the old one someday I'll add to it :blush:

Hey man, everyone has to have a backup for things such as this :D

New 965 and perhaps this very slightly used 975 for sale when return comes from Intel

NO, IT WASN'T THE PROC

After I changed out the CPU to the 975 everything ran well at 4.5 Ghz since the previous post, then, earlier today it started acting up again ??

I did a Memtest that passed all the RAM at stock speed, but showed hundreds of mem problems at OC speeds.

Now Im thinking it's the board but I'm gonna do some more trouble shooting.

Could it be the PSU?

Mem problems are rarely board related. When they are its a no boot thing.

It is either ram or IMC..

(Or board killing one of them)
