While using my computer is fun and all, I noticed that while playing Battlefield 4 that it lagged a lot due to the processor (and probably RAM too, since I'm only using 2GB), so I OC'D the processor (Core2 Quad Q9650) from 3.Ghz to 3.61Ghz.. Battlefield 4 plays much better now as does everything else.
However, I find anything over the 3.61Ghz mark and the motherboard will fail to detect any of my SATA connected devices (namely my hard drives and DVD drive) but the machine DOES boot... Any ideas or suggestions on how to fix or get past this?
