What video card are you using? PSU: thermaltake 420w Please post the amperage limits (A) on the +12V voltage rails. What is your current BIOS Version? ----------------- In case you have Turbo-Switch Cards installed, take them out. Clear CMOS with your PSU disconnected from A/C power after that. Then load "Optimized Defaults" in BIOS. Manually set the memory clock speed to DDR3-1066 for testing and see what happens. |

The option is called "FSB/Memory Ratio". -------------- One question you haven't answered yet: What video card are you using? |

Okay, sorry, with that CPU you can't go any higher than DDR3-800 anyway. Nevermind.
Can you try a different PSU?
Have you tried clearing the CMOS yet?

A PC system with a Radeon 4670: +12V~26A PSU minimum recommended.
As Jack said ignore the watts as there is a huge difference in +12V amps between a good PSU & a crappy one of equal watts.
Example of very good ones: Corsair CX400W +12V~30A, VX450W +12V~33A, TX550W +12V~41A
Edit: Testing with another old PSU with insufficient +12V amps doesn't prove anything, you need to test with one that can provide at least 25 amps and buy one with at least 30 amps so there is not a great strain on the PSU.
