Man Im so happy I just built my first rig.

3800+ X2 (right now at 2.25Ghz)
7800GTX BFG 512mb 580/1750
Mushkin Redline
Hitachi Deskstar 250Gb SATA II
DFI UT Ultra-D
OCZ Powerstream
NEC Dual Layer 16x DVD
X-Fi Platinum
Tsunami Case

Got this the first time:

Then I did a really simple overclock on the CPU:

EVERYTHING else stock, I think thats pretty good for a 3800+ X2 :) .
Im probably going to do more tests and setup right my system, I think I can push the CPU further and the memory is totally relaxed atm, plus the videocard isnt overclocked.. yet :p: .

PS. I find the BIOS on the DFI board intimidating hehe, does anyone have a guide or something? :stick: Thanks.

check the AMD section and xtreme bandwith section and you will find plenty of info to OC your rig and deal with the dfi bios

Be sure to grab Quake 4...not only does it benefit from the GTX, it also benefits from Dual Core Processors.
