Finally got the parts and got everything installed! It is running perfect. I am playing Crysis right now and everything is maxed out. Pretty smooth. Gotta give Fallout 3 a try next.

Thanks for everyones help! I really appreciate it!

Also I would like to do some testing to see what this system is capable of. I have never done it before though so any help would be appreciated.

Also if anyone knows any bios tweaks to get better performance I am all ears.

Thanks again all.

Ask in the AMD section

I'm sure the people there would be glad to help you with overclocking

Yeah I'd read the Oc guides in the AMD section then ask about it. If you want some benchmarks I would grab 3D Mark 01,03,05,06, and Vantage. There are many more but those are the most popular I believe.

Do you have to pay for these programs?

When I said I wanted to see what it was capable of I mainly meant just running benchmarks on it.

Vantage yes and some minor monitoring tools no, I know from personal experience that your system can OC very well, a friend of mine has almost the identical system.

The 3D mark programs are benchmarks the only one you have to pay for is vantage.
