Thanks for the help! A new CPU fixed the problem. There was some oxidation on one of the pins on my old cpu. 40 bucks for an x5675 wasn't a bad upgrade either. Currently running 4.2GHz at 1.35V Scored a 952 in cinebench

I tried the musical RAM chairs and that didn't yield anything, but I'll defiantly take a look at the socket and cpu

I'll try not to break the board haha. I have another LGA 1366 cpu coming in for another build so ill put that in and see what happens.

Unfortunately I can't go back to stock because my cpu won't work with the old bios. I looked at the motherboard and it looks fine. The only thing I haven't tried yet was a suggestion in the comments of the youtube video, which was to loosen or tighten the cpu cooler to change how much pressure...

Windows 10. If I go into the bios it only detects 8GB. There is a "Memory-Z" function in the bios that will freeze the bios if I attempt to view the specs of dimm 3, which is the dimm not being recognized

Yes the memory had been functioning flawlessly for 2 years in my current configuration. I noticed the problem a couple days ago, so it just appeared

I have a dell xps x58 motherboard with an alienware bios flashed onto it as detailed in this thread: http://www.portvapes.co.uk/?id=Latest-exam-1Z0-876-Dumps&exid=threads/westmere-xeon-upgrade-project.2463698/ Yesterday I opened task manager to see that old 8 of my 12 GB of ram was showing up, but when I checked in cpu-z all 12...

I use 200 baseclock with 20 multi. Don't remember voltages, but I could look them up.

x5650@4Ghz is still a beast, haven't had any problems with games. Not too much of a power hog either, the system uses 240 watts in a gaming load with an rx 470

Makes sense, thanks for the help :)

Ok problem solved, I found a 5770 mac edition for a reasonable price.

Update: Just figured out that it won't work out of the box like i thought. Although I'm still looking for a recommendation.

Today I had the luck of acquiring a Mac Pro 3,1. Unfortunately, it is missing both a video card and hard drive. I can get a new hard drive easily, but the video card is very confusing. From some ebay searching it looks like the officially supported cards are way too expensive for what they are...

Just got it to boot thanks everyone. Turns out for some reason it wouldn't boot with both monitors connected after i reset the cmos, weird. No more memory overclocking for me haha.

I sold the 920 :(. But I have a bunch of spare ddr3
