Advice on Graphics Cards

If u know how or if u do know someone who got experience, u can Overclock the 965BE.
Its a pretty good CPU if it comes to overclocking, as i heard.

I stay with my 965BE for a few more months too and i think about getting it to 3,8 / 3,9 GHz.

Overclocking a 965 BE is very easy (you really need to raise the multiplier and the vCore a bit until it's stable and doesn't heat up too much), mine is running easy at 3.8 ghz, and I could probably push it to 4 with no problems, but Soukyuu is already suffering from overheating problems, so overclocking is probably not a good idea.

He should get a new cooler then. Its less expensive than a new CPU.
I get a new one before too, still have the boxed one...

But i wait till my new GPU arrives (tomorrow or the day after i think) and look how it increases my performance on the Benchmark.

I have the same cooler Abriael has and my CPU is overheating while his isn't. His CPU runs at lower temps overclocked than mine on default clocks. Overclocking in not possible because it crashes once I go a few MHz away from stock clocks, no matter if I over- or underclock it. It's definitely defective, I wish I would just have found it out earlier.

Ok, that sucks...
