Needed: Upgrade advice for a Useless individual!

The only thing that may cause a hiccup is the memory voltage - but I only set the Frequency for now - so the timings are probably slack so 1.5v shouldn't be an issue.
 
Same as before:

Get CPU-z - open it - look at the CPU tab then study the -
  • Core voltage
  • Core Soeed
  • Core Multiplier
- for a few minutes while the computer is idle - make a few notes of the numbers (again, they will fluctuate - so don't worry).

Then repeat the process while you run prime 95 - again look at the exact same info within the CPU tab. Again - make notes of figures that you see.

* Don't panic if it BSOD - but hoping it won't :)

Then move onto the Memory tab (within CPU-z) and give me the info in the column
 
Actually - give me the memory values now please.

Just list the values - don't worry about typing it all out - or take a pic.
 
It's 1pm - grabbing a beer...

(marking papers and now drinking - i also have my kids asking me questions - but you have my full attention :D)
 
OK, getting a beer, explaining what 'standard form is to my son' and then we'll run a small prime test.

Get Real temp ready...
