Post by JawZ »

:mad:

well, if you've read my thread where I speak about not being able to hit 200FSB on my A7N8X Deluxe...it's because Dimm SLot #friggin1 is FAULTY.

when I populate banks 2 and 3....I can not only hit 200FSB with NO problems and NO memtest86 errors...I can go even higher.

So my problem is solved but now I'm even more motivated to buy a new rig...at least it's working for now and everything is smooth a buttah.

I got a free Antec TruPower480 yesterday at CompUSA.

I bought a couple of rounded cables and the PSU...and when the girl checked me out....the PSU came up as another set of cables. she charged me 23.95. Of course I paid cash and ran out of the store. The PSU was $119.00 :D :thumb:

Awesome!

I've been following both threads since I have a somewhat similiar problem and was wondering what the outcome would be. I'll be tearing open my case this weekend.
