hey guys,
any of you OC'ers been having problems with the duron 800 chips. I bought 1 when my system went down thinking I might of toasted my 650@ 1ghz ............it turns out that my KT7-raid bit the dust through a PS short ............had to replace the board and the PS................well anyway so I put this 800 in with the new board and it keeps locking up after about 1 hour to 45 min..................now remember I didn't OC it at all...............after messing with it for 5 days I decided to put my ole 650@1ghz back in and walla not lockups at least for now ................been running steady for 4 hours

after you overheat em real bad they start to do random lockups. but I've never had one run for more than about 5 minutes ,,,an hour seems like it would be something else ..but , did you buy it from a pretester?
