Hi everyone!
This is my first post here in Tom's. I normally don't join forums because I often find my questions answered by just researching forum sites. But I can't find the answer to this one.
I was able to overclock my CPU without any problems when I was using my old 9400GT.
This was my setup when everything was fine:
- Core2Duo E7500 2.93GHz overclocked to 3.5GHz
- 2GB DDR2 667
- 1GB GeForce 9400GT
- 610Watts Power Supply (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817121041&cm_re=kingwin_power_supply-_-17-121-041-_-Product)
Here are my upgrades:
- Core2Duo E7500 2.93GHz overclocked to 3.1GHz (That's the best I got. Beyond that, my computer crashes)
- 4GB DDR2 800
- 512MB Radeon HD 4770 Overclocked to 930/1000
I already updated my BIOS, so it's the latest. I also tried to take off my new GPU and use the onboard, I was able to overclock 3.5GHz again. I think the problem is my PSU. I'm not too sure about that, that's why I humbly need your opinions fellas.
Thanks a lot!
