Hi,
yesterday I was overclocking my Q9550 E0 stepping CPU and got it happily to 3400MHZ (400 FSB) anything beyond that, it would refuse to get into windows and just froze at the windows loading bar. I want to know, what happened?
Secondly, I was considering getting the Biostar TP43D2A7
but from what I see on google, the FSB wall seems to be around 420 for quads
Can anybody recommend me a good yet cheap motherboard from here
with a high FSB wall and good O/C options? My max budget is R1300 but might be able to push it up a little higher
