  1. Windows 7 Should I Upgrade RAM with Non-QVL Corsair Kits for My Motherboard?

    I'm thinking about getting some new RAM, not because I usually don't have enough, but occasionally for reasons unknown to me, RAM usage will spike and cause the system to freeze. It doesn't even have to hit 100%, because when it exceeds 80% it may freeze or at least cause things to become...

    Windows 7 Over/underclocking causes freeze

    I don't know if this has been addressed before. In build 7000 32-bit when I change the FSB in the BIOS (or using nVidia tools) it freezes and requires a reboot. My CPU is already overclocked to 3GHz when I installed it and I can't change it without said freeze. Just a heads-up.
