I built the PC in my sig. and had a problem right out of the box getting the memory to run at any speed over DDR 2 800. Last week the PC started crashing while playing games, so I had to run the memory at DDR 2 667 before it would be stable. I called OCZ, tried their suggestions and got an RMA. Then, my video card started displaying artifacts while playing games. It got worse and worse. Now, when I boot I see artifacts on the DFI splash screen and when I go into BIOS. So, now I have a RMA for my vid card too. However, I'm starting to wonder if maybe something else is going on. Could my northbridge be causing all of these problems? What are your thoughts on this. Did I just get unlucky with these two parts failing or is there something else going on?
