    Upgrading i7 920 to fx 8350/9590, worth it?

The cpu/mobo combo came overclocked (4.8ghz) from the store of a friend and i was able to test it in several things. While there was a minor boost in some heavily multithreaded applications, i can say that overall...

    Upgrading i7 920 to fx 8350/9590, worth it?

    Upgrading i7 920 to fx 8350/9590, worth it?

    1.7v ram problem

    It looks like when i use just 1 dimm i can run prime 95 just fine for at least 15 minutes before i get an error on a single thread out of the 8, and that's with all the default settings. Im now trying the 1 dimm with 1.64v and 1066mhz which was my most stable setting in the dual ram setup. It is...
