    Overclocking issue with athlon ii x4 620

    Yeah my temps are fine. They won't go above 45 when I'm gaming etc. You say to try and put it to 1800mhz in the bios but when I do this it still stays at 2400mhz and if I put it at 1600mhz I get blue screens.

    MSI R9 290X Freezing PC

    Hi there. Unfortunately AMD R9 290s and I think 280s + 270s are incompatible with motherboards in the AMD 700 & 800 series chipsets (yours is 760). AMD fail to mention this anywhere when it comes to system requirements and the same with all aftermarket brands. The fact that they refuse to...
