Go to solution Solved by K_c1n,

I think i have fixed it i had turbo core on and that causes huge heat issue on the fx series while overclocking apparently. Im now running at 61 degrees at 4.4Ghz with 1.4v while prime95 max heat torture test is running :)

 

And yes thats as low as i can get the voltage without crashing in the max power test

So ive watercooled my pc its got a fx8320 in it and im attempting to overclock it, i say attempt as im now down to 4Ghz and ai suite is warning me its overheating as i type i mean i know a 360 rad isnt great but this is just getting stupid now im at a 400mhz oc i might aswell not bloody bother, anyone got any idea why this is so?

Well i'll assume it's because it get's too hot. Check your temps before overclocking.

What's you're motherboard? And if I were you, don't use ASUS's software to overclock, use the BIOS

Use the bios then, that's what board I have. Asus's software always gives me warnings but they're all BS. Just uninstall the suite or disable the sensors in the software.

Load the extreme overclocking settings and overclock from there. Don't forget to re-enable the sound too.

Running 1.45v with 4.7GHz on a D-15.

 

High overclocks will cause the ram to go unstable very quickly, either lower the ram frequency or up the CPU NB voltage.
