Lightbulb Lets squeeze it

Please take a look at my rig spec and give me some idea for a higher stable OC configuration. Without adding any hardware. Lets get the most out of this puppy!

Are you planning to OC on this CPU, or are you thinking about getting a better CPU?

my CPU is already OCed from a stock 1.8Ghz to 2.8Ghz. I have had it up to a little over 3.1Ghz. It runs and playes games fine in the initial boot but after power down and restart I smoetimes have to start it twice kinda like having to kick start it. My memory is dual channel but the mobo does not support dual on this set. Is there a workaround. Don't want to replace anything. I just want to make it bleed.

Can you clarify? Also the next step would be to download RivaTuner and overclock your GPU.

What do you need clarfied. Ask a question and i will answer. My GPU is overclocked and i also tried to download and install RivaTuner but it would not work. I'm really just trying to push the current configuration till it tops out. This rig churns thru games including Crysis, Bioshock and Assasins Creed without skipping a beat. When i upgrade and pass this to the next gamer, I want to know its limits.
