Just wanted to post a follow-up.   I've been running fine since I put the replacement memory in.

About a week ago I followed your guide & OC'd to 3.8Ghz with no problems so far.  I plan on trying 4Ghz next, but want to take the time to monitor temps & such when I do that since I am air cooled (with a Hyper212+). 

The only things I had to change were:
    Bumped my ddr voltage from 1.51 to 1.53.
    Bumped CPU voltage from 1.35 to 1.4V.

But I'd already done those when I was trying to diagnose my memory problems.  I like my MB+CPU combo, I just wish they'd put half multipliers back in for an F7 update.

Hi again and thanks for the update, it's always nice to know how things work out.

I really struggled to get my CPU over the 4.0 GHz barrier and had to up the voltage a bit more and also had to make some other tweaks to get everything stable. In the end I decided to pull everything back to 3.8GHz and my system has been running fine at that.  Hopefully, your CPU will be a little more generous and you will be able to get above 4.GHz without too many issues.

Don't forget to keep us up-to-date with your progress and you can start a new thread under the overclocking, watercooling, tweaking section here: http://forum.giga-byte.co.uk/index.php/board,21.0.html and share your success with everyone else!  ;)
