    i had to update my bios to make sure the cpu was recognised properly

    I did a reinstall as I was getting some errors after doing a straight swap

    the ms hotfix is only needed if you have stuttering in games - I have not needed this at all

    make sure you get the latest amd drivers as well as any drivers for your mobo

    cheers

    Thanks for all your help. And thanks for the incredibly useful link kopite

    Everything is working all ok after one reboot.

    I am just messing around with settings to make sure my overclock is stable
