My computer was running rock solid stable at 3400. 12+hours dual prime stable, over 6 hours memtest86 stable, and game stable. Suddenly I started getting wierd lockups while playing a game, or even just stuttering in 2d, and tried to troubleshoot it through the following methods (in order).
I swapped video cards, same problem.
I unplugged all hdds and cd roms except for my main harddrive with windows on it, same problems.
I reghosted back to an image where this wasn't occuring, same problem.
I upped all voltages, same problem.
I downclocked cpu to 3200, same problem.
I loosened timings, same problem.
I downclocked the cpu to stock and now instead of hard lockups in games, it just crashes back to desktop.
Any ideas?
Perhaps motherboard related or power related?
