    Over clock acting wierd..

    I OC'd my new rig to 3.15ghz. After I did whenever I boot I have to push the power button twice before it will post. First push it automatically shuts off then I push button again and it fires right up..... I set back to default and it starts fine now! Is this something to worry about...

    Defrag Raid 0?

    I have 2 500gig Samsung HDD's in raid 0. I did the PC pitstop test and it said I need to defrag my C/ drive. I read somewhere that it is risky to run defrag on raid arrays, am I right or wrong? Also which defrag prog. works best? I have Vista Home prem. 64bit. thanks, Munch

    Is there a consensus now on the most stable X58 boards?

    I have the gigabyte GA-EX58 UD4P, I haven't had any problems with my system. I haven't done much overclocking, just ran the gigabyte Easy tune 6 and was able to hit 3.2. Seemed solid, I reverted back to stock because I am not sure how much this will decrease the life of the hardware... I also...

    Bizarre issue with Gigabyte X58-UD4P board - Memory there, but not seen by Windows.

    Man that sucks , I am waiting to see how it goes. I am looking to OC my system a little, and was wanting some pointers(more of a step by step) on where to start. My goal is to reach 3.2-3.4ghz, I need my system to last for quite a while so not going to push it to far! Good luck with the...

    Gigabyte GA-EX58 UD4P Bios update?

I am running F2 and I haven't had any issues but I have read that it has some stability support and other updates on the newer vesions. Has anyone had experience with this board and would let me know...
