...That's all that I pretty much tweeked... Also don't know how to Overclock yet or at least don't know how to make it stable. I used AMD OverDrive but it whenever I use Prime95 to see if holds up it shows the BSOD every time :| Going to try lurking on the BIOS.

What did you OC it too? And did you bump up the voltage?

OC'd to 4ghz. Didn't increase voltage at 1st then when I tried Prime95, it went further than 60^C then started putting .05V (1.35 to 1.40V) still went up to 60^C. Left it running for at least 20 to 30 minutes, then it restarted. Tried to tweak the multiplier little by little... I'm getting more and more afraid of using prime95 :/
read on a site that it shouldn't get to at least 60^C for 15 minutes during a torture test.
Never the less, will still try stuff out later on... just waiting for the Space Marine demo to finish downloading.
Dude don't just overclock it 600mhz to start with...did you?
These guys test a newer version of the 965, lower wattage, and still can't break 4ghz.

Not to say no chips can, it's really case by case, but from what I'm reading around random forum posts after googling is that 3.9-4ghz definitely seems to be the barrier for most people, regardless of volts. Shoot lower like 3.6-3.7, test it out, use your computer normally, and inch it up slowly while watching temperature.
Well, it seemed stable at 3.6ghz, still can't be sure so I'm sticking to 3.4 for now. Reformatted my whole C: drive, now using windows 7 x32 and still getting 14fps off r6352/3.0 on NMH2. Rune Factory Frontier seems to be doing fine though....
Seems like you should use 64bit if at all possible. I mean, I don't even think windows can see 2/3 of your ram. It's being completely wasted though it wouldn't help much for regular gaming anyway.
Dxdiag shows I'm using 12gb of ram, but yeah... I'm gonna be all newbish on this but, Windows 7 Ultimate comes in both x32 and x64 right? Do you get to have the option to do choose cause I just reformatted earlier and there wasn't any option to choose aboutit and boom, 32 bit windows 7.
Wow... S*** just got complicated :\
Well I got windows 7 from a microsoft retailer like..training? website, I guess you can call it. I have a 32bit and 64bit disc, separate, so I don't know if you can install 64bit with your disc. Also I don't think it matters what dxdiag shows, it's a limitation in the software and how the numbers work that I don't think a 32bit os can actually get to more memory. I'm not really concrete on that but from MS:

x86 is 32bit
urgh..well ths sucks. the site I get my free microsoft official softwares won't let me sign in. blah. have to buy a new one instead :\
However, what about the configuration of mine? I got Rune Factory running at 30fps, NMH2 is still bad (18fps) and Monster Hunter Tri is doing.... surprisingly well (I'm still at the starting point though but both in and out of the village runs at 29fps. Never saw this coming)... I think Both Monster Hunter and NMH2 don't sync with their voices though.
I've played a ton of rune factory, barely any nmh2 and no monster hunter tri. Definitely check the game threads for those.
