Thanks again for the advice - a BIOS update fixed the problem, everything is now working as it should. :D

Wondering if it could be my processor - it's only an Athlon II X2 245.

Thanks, for the advice - tried what you suggested, still no go. The old memory stick still works.

I recently purchased a 4Gx2 set of Ripjaws F3-12800CL9D-8GBRL (DDR3-1600 CL9-9-9-24 1.50v PC3-12800) memory upgrade for my Asus M4N68T motherboard after seeing the advice given to someone else on a thread on these forums. So I took out my old memory and slotted in the new memory and got nothing...

Thanks for the advice.

One last question. If I was to keep the cpu what graphics upgrade would you recommend?

Sorry, missed the cpu recommendation! Thanks for the help.

I am gradually upgrading my computer, so would the cpu be the only bottleneck? What cpu would you recommend for the mbo?

AthlonII X2 245

I have a Asus M4N68T motherboard and I am wanting to upgrade my graphics card (an old faithful 7800GT). I am looking at either a GTX 650 or an HD7770. Are these cards suitable? Overkill? I would be grateful for any advice.
