After doing a little research I downloaded AMD Overdrive and benchmarked/stability tested it, I got up to 4.0ghz but my computer BSOD'd so I lowered it to 3.8, no problems so far. Thing is, I changed the voltage to 1.425 when I went up to 4 ghz, but when I lowered it back to 3.8 I put the...

Ok, so I shut my computer off and turned the little dial on my motherboard about two clicks higher, then I went into my BIOs and changed the frequency multiplier to 17.5x I have a few questions now 1. For bus speed and HT link, do I have to change the multipliers for those? Or is it just Core...

Alright, I'm writing this from my new PC :D Everythings running great as for the PSU, I decided not to go cheap so I replaced that cooler master with this Buy the Corsair VX550W 550W ATX Power Supply at TigerDirect.ca And as for RAM, they were out of the ones in the list so I got this instead...

Ok will do. I already put the PSU in the case and hooked it up to the motherboard, I hope the accept it -.-
