I've read somewhere that this is C3 and all of these on that list seem to be C2. Could that be it?

But I'm saying that the Phenom II X4 965 is not on the list, so this might be caused by the CPU not being supported correctly. There is no reason it should be setting it to 800 MHz and using 1.775V.

That's probably it...what do you think I should do? I can still return it and swap it at the store.

Ooo that'd be cool because then you can use this list to buy the next best one within your budget! That way it should behave normally.

Heh, I don't get hit with a restocking fee in CompUSA which is where I bought it. My brother agreed to swap it with my 9850 (my crappier motherboard somehow accepts it) until he gets a BIOS update for it. Thanks for the offer, but sorry.

But for the sake of jumping the gun on purpose: sometimes a BIOS update fixes odd problems like this.
