I have a GA-MA790FX-DS5 motherboard and just bought the Phenom 9850 Black edition with unlocked multiplier..
Im trying to overclock it to 3.0ghz at least by just changing the multiplier but even at 2.6 ghz the computer crashes with a blue screen of death with something about one of the cores wasnt responding!
Is that bad?..something wrong with the CPU?
Now if there isnt anything wrong with the CPU then how the heck do I overclock it with my current motherboard?
