I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! After updating bios all the stress tests I can find are running great. But there is one issue I am not sure how do deal with.

After running CPU-Z, I get the following results:

Its normal, it means 400 x 2

DDR means double dynamic rate, and you have DDR2 ram as in x2.

Maths working overload here ;) means x2.

No biggy its perfectly normal :)

Thanks Jamie for the clarrification.

I am so happy about my new PC. Havent got to try out any games but I can watch HD trailers without having to press pause every 2seconds.
