Re: Help for NUB plz?

Hi, I have tested both sticks of ram and everything appears to be fine

In cpuz it says my ram is installed to slot 2 and 4, if I'm not mistaken isn't it supposed to be installed to slots 1 and 3? I had the computer assembled by the place where I bought all the parts. I have messed around with building systems in the past, but when I dropped over $3,000 all at once on some pretty decent stuff I didn't want to take a chance on screwing it up not to mention I have never done anything with the dual video card setup before.


I have also read the sticky, and my motherboards bios has that auto overclock feature so I tried to go the 10% and it wouldn't boot into windows... it just kept rebooting but I didn't start messing around with the voltages until I consulted you to go any further...

I read in other places of overclocks much higher than 10% on AMD systems, should I not be able to hit atleast 3gig with the hardware I have?
after I find out what is causing the BSOD's?

In the end I am hoping you guys will teach me how to get the absolute most out of the system I have including overclocking the cpu, ram, and vid card
