I had problems with my OC the first problem was the system DDR RAM did have to be clocked down to 333 MHz because I filled all four slots with fast DDR (600) 512 MBs as two sets of interlaced banks dont work well like one bank would. Besides there was not good one GB DDR RAM as far as I knew. I was still having a problem with the system even set at normal speeds & my winfast video card 6800 NU did turn out to be the problem. On my old system this error only happened once in a great while but on the new system it happened alot. It turns out the RAM on it default set at 1000 MHz was to much & would reset the system, once I turned the speed down to 900 MHz all the problems went away. I have written Winfast but they are on one of those long vacations & they will be back next week, I requested a test program thou now I really dont need it, what threw me was the GPU temp jumped to 67 degress C.
Anyways I got 10x 260 4x (DDR@ 333 or 400 MHz)& at 11x 245 5x DDR 333 MHz. In the end I pick 11x (225 or 230 5x DDR 333 MHz. BTW my CPU does not really get hot nice cooler.
