I think the cpu is still alright after looking at the ram problem,I was loosing a mhz here and there on my OC so that's why i thought it was the cpu,The ram never really occured to me,I would like to get a 3000+ or 3200+ but they are still kind of expensive for 754,The sempron doe's everything i need so i figure just go for ram & a board with better oc option's
If I was him I would just invest some cash into a socket 939 or AM2 setup with a 3000+ processor... AM2 processors are rather cheap compared to the other sockets...
