i actually forgot how many GHz the CPU was putting out but it was 525x7

i also am not sure what i was doing that day.....

it was either that or my usual 24/7 clocks of 3.5GHz and DDR2 1200 with all volts to auto....... and thanks for the heads up on the volts issue. it was in the morning of a school day so this probably was it since i never keep anything above 500 FSB running for more than an hour.

the board always behaved strange, it would freeze up randomly even at stock which made me worry so i did all the testing i did, all other components passed but the freeze would occur after 10+ hours of orthos usually and sometimes just after i use the internet.
