Had 3 AMD FX+ 8320's, haha.

 

First one apparently went full retard, making everything look weird.

 

Second one I OC'ed to bad that it crashed

 

Third one, as I have not, works fine. And lesson learned..

 

Now my second will be the nre 4790k

yes lets do that. i could currently buy enough northwood Pentiums to fill a 900d for less than £500 :P i don't think i'm going to though, because it would take too long to oc them all. make sure that a8 is >6ghz ;)
