    Just finished trying all possible RAM in all possible slots, same result each time.
    I'm now gonna try changing processor settings and RAM settings but a little lost on what to actually change.
    RAM is currently at the minimum ratio (1:2 running at 960 MHz) and the processor running at x11, 2640 MHz.
    Theres loads of options such as AMD Cool N Quiet, CPU-NB ratio, EC Firmware, advanced clock calibration, auto overclock technology and multistep OC booster which I have no clue about and this is only the processor. What sort of things should I be changing? Just stick to lowering the CPU ratio for the processor and FSB/DRAM ratio for the RAM?

    These are the possible options for the RAM, i've already listed the options for the CPU above. They're all in the ADVANCE DRAM CONFIGURATION menu.
    DRAM timing mode
    DRAM drive strength
    DRAM advance control
    1T/2T memory timing
    DCT Unganged mode
    bank interleaving
    power down enable
    MemClk Tristate CD/ATLVID

    Have you tried resetting everything to default?

    Yep, pretty sure its the processor, just ran the game for a good 15 minutes and before it was 2 minutes max.
    Thanks for your help though man.
    Wish it turned out to just be a stick of RAM that was faulty though..
    No problem. Sorry it was the processor causing the issue; that's usually pretty rare. Is the processor still under warranty?
    Yeah, i've never really heard of a processor causing such problems but oh well. I bought it from ebuyer and ive got rid of the box now..

    Pretty gutted to be honest.
    Im a student and im back for christmas, I suppose this will be my xmas present now. Brilliant...

    He was having the same issues/worse issues with everything set to default.

    Any idea where the option to up the voltage is for my CPU?
    Cant find any options to up any voltages anywhere..

    Check your motherboard manual. BIOS information would be in there.

    It is in the Cell Menu. You would need to find a way to make the voltage manual instead of auto to adjust the voltages supplied to the CPU. Is your PSU rated to handle that CPU?

    Some important info provided in your manual: "Spread Spectrum
    When the motherboard’s clock generator pulses, the extreme values (spikes) of
    the pulses create EMI (Electromagnetic Interference). The Spread Spectrum function
    reduces the EMI generated by modulating the pulses so that the spikes of
    the pulses are reduced to flatter curves. If you do not have any EMI problem,
    leave the setting at Disabled for optimal system stability and performance. But if
    you are plagued by EMI, set to Enabled for EMI reduction. Remember to disable
    Spread Spectrum if you are overclocking because even a slight jitter can introduce
    a temporary boost in clock speed which may just cause your overclocked processor to lock up.

    Important:
    If you do not have any EMI problem, leave the setting at [Disabled] for optimal
    system stability and performance. But if you are plagued by EMI, select the
    value of Spread Spectrum for EMI reduction.
    The greater the Spread Spectrum value is, the greater the EMI is reduced, and
    the system will become less stable. For the most suitable Spread Spectrum
    value, please consult your local EMI regulation.
    Remember to disable Spread Spectrum if you are overclocking because even a
    slight jitter can introduce a temporary boost in clock speed which may just cause
    your overclocked processor to lock up" (Manual for 770-C45).
