Will do. I very much doubt that all the slots are faulty, I have tried every combination possible.

Ok, so the 6950 has been removed and I'm using on board graphics and it is still crashing.

So, it's either the Mobo or the PSU or the CPU. I'm going to RMA the Mobo with another un-named company, but in the meantime I want a new motherboard.

Can anyone recommened a rock solid AM3 mobo that will OC the processor well and is rock solid?

And a new PSU, any good modular deals around at the moment?

Thanks

I'm not willing to buy ASUS again, and is a bit too much for my liking.

Went ahead and bought the Gigabyte. Also bought an Antec TruePower 650w.

Let us know how you get on with it, whether it clears blue screens up

If it does blue screen, then it can only be one thing, right?

Exactly. Anyway, I'll update once I build the rig again with the new stuff, sometime next week I suppose.
