Your thread has been moved to the dust bin as it doesn’t meet the preconditions for receiving assistance on the Garuda forum.

To receive technical assistance on the Garuda forum you must include the terminal output of the garuda-inxi command on your opening post.

Aside from that, you were too lazy to bother to include any information whatsoever in your opening post.

Are you talking about overclocking your RAM, your CPU, or your GPU, or all of these?

Please be far more specific in the future if you wish to receive technical assistance on the Garuda forum.

Also, be sure to remove the text included with the request for assistance template from your opening post.
