Blue screens = memory (RAM) problem, Black screens = CPU speed problem, Freezing during desktop = temp problem.

HT Link speed=CPU link speed to the chipset/mobo. Best if you keep this the same or lower than your Northbridge speed (which is your L3 cache speed).

Hope these tips helped and good luck!
