Thanks lads, you see I assumed cause it was a 3800 that it would be easy to run it at 3.5
I've done some tests of the things that use to take forever with my old one, things like making clips in cs, rendering cs movies in vegas etc are SO MUCH FASTER. I'm well impressed. Just hoping this memory will sort my games out like it did for Ham. I read on BF2 that 512 is the absolute minimum to use so maybe that explains it.
I've installed 3 nvidia drivers, is it possible these could be conflicting?
