bios has alot of options for them to OC? I was plannning on getting the

Windows 7 RC 64 bit (and later Windows 7 itself when it is released)
plus applications and then have my two existing 500Gb SATA drives
mirrored (RAID 1) to protect all my data. This way if there is a drive

With either Corsair or G.Skill memory they will not boot at 1066 speed

Recently I have been getting the "system failed due to CPU
overclocking" message upon boot up of my A7N8X Deluxe system.  I have
