I have a question on my system before release:Will my system be good for the 737NGX? This is what I have currently, just wondering if someone can tell me if this is ok. I also would like to get into OverClocking my CPU. I don't know anything about this so I just wanted to know if anybody and if the PMDG Tech team/Developers can help me out on this. I would appreciate it Hugely!!System:Motherboard: MSI MSI X58 Pro-E (MS-7522)Chipset: Intel X58Processor: Intel Core i7 940 @ 2933MHz (4 Cores)Physical Memory: 12288MB (6 x 2048 DDR3-SDRAM)Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285Hard Disk: Samsung HD103SJ ATA Device (1000GB)Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate Professional Media Center 6.01.7600 (64-bit)Monitors: 3 x 24 inch (Each 1920 x 1200 @ 60 HZ) Making a total Res. of 4080 x 768 = Matrox TripleHead2Go Digital EditionSo I would really like to know how to get into Overclocking my Intel i7 940!Best Regards,Tristan

I dont think you will have any problems running the ngx i'm sure Vin's computer is a I7-920 oc to 3.2 or 3.6.I have a i7-920 D0 oc @ 4ghz and i'm positive i wont have any problems running the ngx

Thanks very much! Do you have any tips for overclocking?? I am seriosuly a REAL Beginner when it comes to Overclocking! :(

Hello,I'm a beginner my self u can see my spec from my sig.Multiplier: x21BCLK: 191vcore: 1.32qpi/dram: 1.3dram bus: 1.64Ram timings: 9-9-9-24I've found that anything below 1.32 was to unstable and wouldn't even boot would blue screen after windows reaches login screen.At 1.32 it's perfectly stable I'm currently using corsair H70 as well never seen temps over 70°c

One bigtime mistake in particular that I've seen people make is keying in the total voltage you're going for instead of the amount you want it raised by - that's a real easy way to fry your chip. Understand how your BIOS works before you try to do anything.

Thanks Ryan and sijenks5! I really appreciate the help! I will look over that guide later Ryan! Now I need to findout what my BIOS Password is :/ As I have forgotten it / don't actually know what it is! :(

I used this onehttp://www.overclock.net/intel-cpus/538439-guide-overclocking-core-i7-920-930-a.htmlPete Walsh.

And make sure your temps are not at 70C on idle, and at stock speed. [like last time Tristan ;) ;) ] :(

My temps at the moment are at 45-50C ... :)

Head over to Hardware Discussions, "MOBO, RAM, CPUs & Other Hardware" Lots of info and Overclockers who i am sure can give you some useful tips.Regards,

What cooler do you have too? Do not try to OC on the stock cooler if that's what it is.

go to overclockers.com they have an overclocking tutorial that you can print out and it covers the important key basics especially with specific voltages that need to be setbill

Overclock.net all the way these guys no Their stuff and guided me right thru it :( Rich

The first time I OC'd, I miscalculated the voltage and killed the proc... all comes with the OC'ing game... accept it, or don't OC.
