System can be idle, i could be playing Diablo III or Starcraft II
could simply be trying to right click to close something in taskbar
and it will just freeze and then do that for no reason...
I never over clocked it... just put it together and turned it on..


Previous board was an INTEL DQ35JOE
with Quad Core processor and 8 gigs ddr2.

And on that board i was getting critical error's 41 id in system log.
ALSO this is a brand new 750 watt psu.

Figured it out. Code 101 is low vcore. Go into your bios and change the cpu voltage from Auto to 1.25v

That's what's causing it? i'll try that when i get home. my PC has been stuck on a blue screen for the last 4 hours because i'm at work currently.

I'll give that a shot.

I'd like to over clock it... but i dont know how.
i'm new to this whole EFI BIOS etc. Stuff has changed alot....

I very much doubt low voltage is causing your blue screens.

My first guess is your RAM. I see quite a few people with Kingston using 1.65v RAM and not the 1.5v required by the integrated memory controller on the 2600K. What are the exact RAM specs or the product code?

Also what "brand new 750w power supply" are you using?

Power supply is absolute trash. It's not even 80+ certified. I would not attempt an overclock with it. That power supply is a mislabled 550w power supply at best. Thankfully a 550 Ti only needs a good 400-450w PSU.

What about your RAM? Sandy Bridge processors need 1.5v RAM. I have seen 1.65v RAM cause blue screens and I have seen low cas ( 7 or 8 ) RAM cause blue screens due to not playing nice with the integrated memory controller.

You should NOT have to change the vcore on a stock chip to get it to run correctly. The power supply or the RAM is your problem. I would bet on it. The power supply either not producing the rated power on various rails or high ripple and noise ( "dirty" power ) producing errors could be the problem.

KINGSTON KVR1333D3N9/4G

BRAND NEW NOT EVEN 2 DAYS OLD.
The Power Supply i've had no problems with.
it powers everything as it should. I just don't know...
I've worked with PC's up to Quad core. I have not kept up on the industry.
Someone has got to have a distinct answer... because its not the RAM.. Memtest86+ passed for 9 hours testing.

RAM should be fine it's 1.5v. Since you are having blue screens I don't know how you can be sure the power supply is fine.........

Ultra is a brand known for crap power supplies. They are just marketed well by TigerDirect. That specific model uses ShenZhen RuiSheng Yuan as an OEM. Trust me when I say you don't want one of their products in your computer. The only good ( very few ) Ultra power supplies use Andyson as the OEM.

That model only supplies 45 amps on the 12v rail for 540 watts ( amps x volts = watts. ) A quality brand would call that a 550-600 watt power supply since the 12v rail is the most important thing in a modern computer.

A Corsair 750TX V2 has a full 62 amps on the 12v rail supplying 744 watts just for an example.

Here is a typical review of some Ultra power supplies. Keep in mind these are the "good" models made by Andyson.

http://www.hardocp.com/article/2009/11/24/ultra_x4_850w_1050w_power_supplies_review/8

If you want a quality power supply and you do since it's the single most important part of your computer stick with Corsair, Seasonic, PC ower and Cooling, XFX, Silverstone, Enermax, OCZ and Antec. You can almost always find a quality unit on sale somewhere just as cheap or even cheaper than a garbage unit.

Ok first you just have a 550 Ti right? From that website these are the best deals I see.

First here is a list of how much power a whole system needs with pretty much every graphics card.

http://www.realhardtechx.com/index_archivos/Page362.htm

Ok first is the Antec HCG ( High current gamer ) series 520w model. It's made by Seasonic ( a very good thing ) and is only $62.

http://www.microcad.ca/products/details/Antec-HCG-520-ATX12V-EPS12V-Power-Supply-88-1019287769

Second is this XFX 550w model that is also made by Seasonic for $67.

http://www.microcad.ca/products/details/XFX-XPS-550W-SEW-ATX12V-EPS12V-Power-Supply-85-Efficiency-550-W-1019502905

Both of these units provide enough power for 2 x 550 Ti cards in Sli. They also provide plenty of power for any single graphics card up to and including the GTX 670/680 and HD 7950/7970.

The only Corsair units that compete in price on that site are the CX line and they are Corsair's budget line and a step down from either of the 2 models I listed.

A great power supply and a complete waste of money unless you plan on running 2 x GTX 680s. So unless you plan on dropping $1000 on graphics cards to replace that ~$100 GTX 550 Ti it's just not necessary.

There is no risk to overpowering your system but there is no reason to either. That list I linked to above is for the whole system with the listed power requirements. Also when Nvidia or AMD recommend a wattage they base it on you having a "generic" power supply not a quality unit. The ones I listed are very high quality. Notice the 550w XFX has 44 amps on the 12v rail. Or 1 less than the "750w" Ultra. And that assumes the Ultra can even supply the rated power.

Both are made by Seasonic. Seasonic is about the best manufacturer out there. You can pretty much flip a coin.
