That is the exact same problem I was having with my 5770s as soon as I got them.The 720 has plenty of CPU power, thanks kman. Not to mention the ease of overclocking it and running it stable. Right now I only have it at 3.2ghz because the way the AC doesn't work in my room, but I did have it at 3.7 constant like in my sig (up from 2.8).
Lately my OS has just been getting super cluttered, and I need more RAM. Not to mention my GPU problems, still not sure if that's heat related or card related, but I'm starting to lean more towards card related...may need to replace it soon. Problems have been happening more frequently, and last night the driver completely failed after freezing everything...restarted the driver, but still had to reboot with all the screen problems I was still having. Meh.
I think it's just time to retire this machine and build a new one...I've been meaning to anyway so this machine can be a dedicated music recording system.
I had my 720 at 4.2 but also was under water.
