    Yet Another Spec Me A System - Sorry :P

    You could check out my signature. I built this recently and while it is not top of the range, it seems to play anything I throw at it. The 3700 is simple and very effective at overclocking, as is the 7800GT. The whole lot set me back around £600. :)

    New System Ideas

    And a lesson well learnt from installing Windows. Activated before service packing (couldn't remember what order this should be done in) and then could not service pack or get up task manager. A quick reconnection to the web and a download of Avast (free anti virus) revealed that my 30 second...

    Problem

    To be honest I would doubt it is the CPU. Did the motherboard post (ie beep) prior to the fault when turned on? From my experience MB's tend to be the easiest bit to break. Many turn out to be DOA. They will often run the fans but it will end there. Try disconnecting everything from the board...

    New System Ideas

    Thought I would post this as it may be help for others. Have just built a system for the better half and am stunned at the performance for the money. After looking around at cheap prebuilds, I decided to build her one. If anyone is looking for a good solid and very quick system, they might like...

    HELP! - System wont post (make a better title next time)

    Have tried with the memory in and have also reseated the CPU, fan, memory. This board has on board graphics so I should not need the GPU. Wondering though whether is worth pulling the graphics from my own pc to test?

    HELP! - System wont post (make a better title next time)

    Building a pc for otherhalf and motherboard will not post. ASUS K8N-VM. I have not used one of these before. Have unplugged everything, leaving only the CPU and fan connected. Power to the board but no bios post. I suspect this is DOA? Any advice appreciated!

    New Rig

    Awesome. I ordered a similar setup a couple of weeks ago and am well pleased. The 3700+ seems an awesome overclocking chip. I ordered the OEM version and have overclocked it as in signature... and it's not even breaking a sweat at this level. A bit more tweaking at the weekend me thinks!

    PC-7B plus info?...fans

    An update from Overclockers with regard to the PC 7 plus/ PC007 situation (this is the anodised black finish): I am unsure when the item will be back in stock at the moment. It is simply a case of waiting and keeping check on the website for it to come in. If the manufacturer has changed...

    3700 Overclock

    Ok I have read the guide now and took the plunge with my first processor overclock ever yesterday. From reading on these boards this is probably not the most blistering overclock ever but would appreciate some advice to make sure I have got the right idea and am not about to frazzle anything...

    Overclocking Asus Sli A8N SE mobo

    Excellent. Thankyou! I had set that as thought was the correct setting. I guess the Ntune app maybe detecting this wrong? I'll head into the bios and do a bit of tweaking instead! Thanks again.

    Overclocking Asus Sli A8N SE mobo

    Wondering if anyone can help! Not that confident with overclocking mb's but having a go. Am getting the error message in nTune that the "PCI clock is currently set to track the HT bus." I'm told I need to disable this feature but cannot find in the BIOS manual as to where or how I should do...

    Final check...

    Cheers. Done the GPU with the coolbits and will have a read of processor link. I may be being completely dumb (!) but is it the drive fitness test I should be downloading for the HD? :(
