    Im havnig some umm.. trouble with my new build.:x:

    ASUS A8N-SLI PREMIUM
    AMD X2 4400
    1G OCZ Gamer xtreme
    xfx 7800gtx

    anywho. The CPU will go to about +300Mhz +150FSB fairly stably. But I have watercooling. Shouldnt that be fairly easy, with a possible 150-+ more? An FSB of 1GHZ should be possible (not probable tho), right? Temp never rise above ~27c.

    Graphs card. I cant increase, manually, the 7800gtx pci-e bus above 26-2700mhz without system hangs. Also, it sometimes reaches a nice warm 40c even at stock 2500 bus...!?!! Will get vga adaptor for h20 cooling soon.

    Worst of all, my RAM. Top rated @ 2.9v (waranty goes to 3.2, bios only goes to 3) should be capable of 433@ 2.2.2.5 without any issues. It wont even BOOT!!?!?!?!?!? Let alone if I set the command rate down to 1. Not even at 333 with relaxed timings. No way.:swear:

    WTF is going one here?! Surely, my system, as it is, is an overcocking DREAM (or should be). Why OH WHY can I not increase these settings without losing stability let alone system hangs, occasional BSODS and no-booting????

    Please help me.:confused:
