try slowly clockign it up, and running the cpu benchmark test, and see if it rises, say go 100mhz at a time, or whatever is easyest. and see if it does go up, and if it a point it starts dropping again

i think there&#39;s something wrong with the cpu. at 3.2, i get 0-5 fps in the troll&#39;s lair cpu test. at 2.4, i still get 0-5 fps in that test. wat do u think? [/b][/quote]
try what i said to see if the cpu is being throttled down. im not sure if there is any way to know except with a program with live cpu frequency updating.

get that wcpuid program and see what clock frequency it is displaying then you will know if it is throttling it down becuase of a heating problem or somehting like that.

Hey, on Black Vipers service configuration guide here what setting should i use? Im using gaming so far..disabling alot of stuff

[tesco]

i wouldnt follow that gaming guide if i were you...i did it once and my internet connection wouldnt work, fast user switching was turned off, themes also, system restore which i used at the time. (i was stupid back then and didnt know what anything was). just open services.msc and look at the ones that say started and then read the name and if its something that you recognize and dont need turn it off, if you arent sure what somehting is read the guide...dont just go and disable everyhting or you will be sorry after.

I have the same problems with those benchmarks...Ever since I OC&#39;d to 3.26GHz, i only get 0-1 fps in some parts of the trolls lair. Now after I went back to stock settings, I hav ethe same problems. All my benchies are a lot lower then they were when I first put the system together. Only Sandra sems to notice the difference...If anyone can help I&#39;d like to know what could be wrong, too. Maybe we damaged the chips? or some bios setting isn&#39;t right. Also, I had a corrupt hard drive where WinXP was installed (i always use a seperate HD for my OS, so its no biggie) but ever since I reinstalled XP I noticed the problem. I&#39;m all updated and everything but i&#39;m thinking maybe I forgot to do some tweaks that I did before I reformatted? Thanks for any help, and I hope ihaveabu gets the problem resolved too&#33;

i know that this will proberly have no help what so ever but my computer got really slow as the hard drive was filling up then i freed some space and it ran better

i went on asus.com and got their newest version of the chipset driver. the one i had on my disc corrups my os and everything crashes. now it works great&#33;&#33;&#33;

i&#39;m doing 25fps on that cpu test and i&#39;m at stock cpu speed too&#33;&#33;&#33; wahooo&#33;&#33;&#33;
