Can't play any games after installing my new processer. Went from an i3-2100, to an i5 3570k, and now all my games crash after a few minutes of play time. I've tried it with my system overclocked, at stock speeds, and with turbo boost turned off, with a number of different combos. For some reason my BIOS disabled turbo boost on the last boot. I see no error reports, except with ARMA 2. I checked my memory, updated video drivers (which were missing after installation of new processor). Any suggestions? Both sticks seemed fine, and the only thing I can think of, is that my video card is wonky, or the new processor is DOA.

You want the newest bios, the UA9(UEFI BIOS). They are all backwards compatible.

Do you know how to update your bios? If not, just say the word and I'll walk you through it.

Sounds about right. Updating the firmware should ensure that it behaves properly

does this mean I need to flash my BIOS, or simply download the correct thing off the website, and run it?
