gees been a while :p

anyway, want to know about overclocking my i7,

should i turn off hyper threading when i hit a higher clock, say 3.50ghz?

also the power states, errrr, i think it like c1, c2 ,c3, ect should i enable the lower power saving option when in idle or disable them.

not demanding that i know these answers, just would like to know peoples personal opinons as i have been getting bsod lately, was running 3.86 ghz and it started. had all above enabled.

- :hello: thanks guys :hello: -

I doubt if hyperthreading is the cause of your BSOD problems, but it is a simple matter to turn it off and see.

Well then I guess I'm too lazy to tell you your BSOD is likely a ram problem.
