i'm testing for stability, Gigabyte offers a really minor OC with the first BIOS set up. it's 3.7 instead of 3.4 i wanted to see if it is stable, i freeze up in BF BC2.. it isn't the Video card, doesn't look like the CPU either. i put all the settings in BC2 to lowest. my e8400 would run it on high settings. i'm runing an i5 3750K. BC2 is known to max out even quads, i just had one more level to go in multiplayer, thought i'd finish. guess i might just move on.

i just got this rig going, i work a lot of overtime so i havent been able to play with it much.

thanks for the detailed info, i appreciate that.

right now i'm trying to get rid of a "POWER SURGE ON HUB PORT" MESSAGE, 'a USB device has exceeded the power limits of it's hub port.' clicking on the provided 'RESET' tab does nothing. i only have a keyboard and Mamba mouse, i swapped out both items, used different ports.. nothing works. i even tried System Restore, if it isn't one thing it's another..

i posted query about the USB problem on Gigabyte's Fourm.
