It was the Proc

MaadDaawg · #1 10-02-2010

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

Double threader.

I ... ummm.. couldn't remember where the other one was

I'll search

I'm thinking it was titles something like "opinions please" but I'll be damned if I can find it

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

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

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?

if you got a "spare" i would try... ricks psu was bad during the team contest everything worked after he switched it out
