Hi halutz,

With overclocking have you tried raisng the CPU voltage a little bit to see if it will run stable. I can't remember if this option is enabled on non EE intel chips, someone else will know though.

What RAM divider are you running at? The insatability could be caused by pushing the RAM too hard.

Wasn't there an article that Apop did with regards to overclocking with the Bad Axe mobo? If my memory serves me right then there is a mod that you need to do the mobo itself...someone please correct me if I am wrong.

BTW, welcome to Legit Reviews!
