    are my temps safe?

    My motherboard has no MOSFET cooling. I over clocked anyways. While running prime 95 or other stress tests hwmonitor reports no temps over 52. Am I safe with this?

    got new dimm showing its installed but used for gpu?

    the problem was i had it in the 2, 3, 4 slots. i switched the corsair to 1 and 3 and the kingston to 2 and it runs fine now. The problem was i was attempting to run 2 different sticks in the same channel. my mistake it was a quick fix.

    300-400 pound gaming pc

    I would say you are doing pretty good here. The cpu cooler i have for my 6300 is the cooler master hyper 101a. My cpu overclocked to 4.4 ghz running prime 95 only ever hits 63. so if you ever are needing more oumph and over clock itd be great and its cheap too.

    I got cod ghosts yesterday because it was half off on steam. Everytime i go to play it after a few games i will be running around and all of a sudden the graphics will just ffreak out turn a dark gray and just block my field of view. Anyone else have this problem? Do you know how to fix it?

    Computer fails to boot any devices.

    My pc that i had laying around for awhile was about to be resurected as a basic, low end gaming machine. Every time i go to install linux, windows, or even boot a live cd it simply gives an error, or sits at a blank screen with a blinking cursor. The mediums ive tried are fine as i used them...

    Psu has wattage but isn't xf compatible

    Ohh also I do beeline the pcie connectors are to close together which I why I suggested the adapter. I don't think it'll have enough reach otherwise. But with 2 7770s it shouldn't really have an issue?
