i thought u was an intel guy but yeah i cant wait for bulldozer PHYSICAL 8 Cores with L2 and L3 cache at 8 MB running at 3.9 ghz for it FX-8170. Now thats a lot of power for roughly $280 with out shipping i cant wait till i can upgrade to it.
@RickArter I mean i don't think the Phenom were a bad processor if you are a gamer/media guy but don't edit at all or any really cpu straining tasks it was the perfect cpu, i mean the Phenom II 955 was playing crysis lovley back in 2009 and a its enough even now since people overclock it past 4 ghz so its blazing.
Nice secondary PC. I like Linux (Ubuntu) on my secondary, but to each their own. BSOD is normally a memory dump, could be related to a number of things. Check your voltages (I suspect RAM voltage/timings first off) and work from there, amigo. Or it's a unstable OC (I don't recall if you've OC'd the temp. cpu). Either way, best of luck!
@NoFreeTechSupport Yea was a memory dump now I think of it. Went into BIOS and set some timings and voltages.Seems good now haven't ran prime95 on it yet, will tomorrow with more videos about the bulldozer rig on other channel. No OC yet coming soon hopefully can unlock this thing to a B55 quad..
@RickArter Heh, 10 years ago I was an A+ certified expert... I guess I still know what I'm talking about sometimes, eh? Not just a pretty face (Yeah... right! Well, maybe to my wife.) BTW another shout out in my latest vid. You and the others keep me in this game, and for that I thank you (while my wallet curses you! lol)
my land lord dropped off an old HP tower for me, it's dead, but it's a free case in my eyes :) I had a BSOD the other day too! omg conspiracy! :)) I was playing BF3 and it just restarted BSOD style. but yeah, i'm ordering a mATX mobo, RAM, and a PSU I think. I already have a DVD-RW, i'll only need cpu, gpu and hdd then i'll have a new tower.
@misterpc23 I spent a lot of time with my GF so if we are hanging out and she wants to watch something I really don't it lets me play a game or benchmark while she does stuff on the internet rig. Also I can use the internet rig for youtube or anything else while my bulldozer rig is running benches, stress testing, or if its being worked on.
a little trick for cleaning old dirty case fans. Mean Green will make them look like new.

@deathlord619 Always have been hoping the decision to go AMD this round with the new FX isn't a mistake.
