You will need an AMD chip-set based mobo to use AMD Overdrive successively as you
are using an [U][B]Nvidia[/B][/U] based chip-set mobo you will have no luck what so ever in getting
it to ever run correctly. You will need something like say a [U][B]AMD 740 - 790GX [/B][/U]based
chip-set mobo as the Overdrive utility isn’t just dependent on having an AMD CPU but
having a combination of a AMD CPU + AMD chip-set mobo.

Here is a list of AMD chip-set based mobo’s at newegg.

I’m running an AMD based chipset (770) along with an X2-6400+ and it won’t work with my setup. Here’s my motherboard: http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overview.aspx?ProductID=2722

I wonder why it won’t work??
