Just got finished installing an ASRock 870 Extreme, 955 BE, and 4Gb of G.Skill Ripjaw DDR3. Windows 7 x64 Ultimate is up and running and all drivers are good to go.
So...what should I do now? Any suggestions to test the system out?
I already know I have to overclock the RAM so I have the full 1600MHz.
I have plenty of cooling in my Antec 900 (For Stock at least). 2 Front 120mm Intake fans, 1 side panel 120mm Fan (cant remember whether its exhaust or intake), 1 rear 120mm exhaust, stock CPU cooler, top 200mm exhaust.
I plan to try my various games out now and see if they run any smoother/better. (Crysis, MW2, Far Cry2, etc.)
Any other suggestions?
