Alright so... I'm.. ligit confused.. so it worked with one stick. Did a validation using cpu-z to see what its ready and numbers are constantly changing ie voltage and mhz because default bios but it reading every stick that i slowly put in. Obvi when its off and all but thats just weird.. i guess this is fix?? Is there any potential errors that may occur? I might upgrade the psu for future oc and peace of mind but idk if i still should oc the ram to 1866.. i mean if it aint broke dont fix it right? Well gonna memtest and stress test aswell as benchmark it and hope it goes well, fingers crossed

UPDATE: i just got it to work. As it turns out on a other post. Apparently this mobo likes to be picky with amd and its ram. So i tried 1 stick and reset the bios. It flippin work. So now.. how do i add more ram lmao. I have 3 other sticks that i would love to use for gaming and such but now this is the next issue.

May i also add it didnt work when I slapped the fx8350 on with the oc'ed ram. Thats what i meant when I said it didn't work

No you're all good, and sorry for the late response, been pretty busy and it was hard enough to try to get around this. Anways I did overclocked JUST the ram to 1866mhz (btw i also managed to stress test and bench both oc ram andnmy fx6300. I feel proud). But it didnt work with only the ram oc'ed and everything else default or auto. What i found for the ram to work is obvi- 1833mhz w/ 2-11-11-11-36, dram voltage - 1.60v. Im starting think the cpu just doesnt want to work or the psu is on the low side. Even tho there's some builds works fine with a 500w psu. Aaawww yeah

I was thinking about that and the tam i jave is already 1600mhz which is even weirder because ive seen builds with 1600mhz. Maybe i can try overclocking it to 1866mhz hopefully it works. Just gotta find a tutorial for it tho since i haven't touch basis of oc ram, only cpu and gpu as of so far

I did and im planning on getting hyper x, 2x 4gb 1866mhz. Not sure if i can post a link in the forums

The fx 8350 is indeed brand spanking new. Ordered from Amazon with wraith cooler

Yes i did reset everything. You might be on to something. It is 1600mhz on the ram. I honestly never heard or seen a mentioned on the ram compatibility. So looks like this friday i have to pick up some ram and try it then. I'll have to report back afterwards

First I like to say, I had search to see any topic similar to this and other forum website and tried similar answer and still nothing. That being said My pc isn't showing anything on screen after upgrading the cpu from a fx6300 to a fx8350. Everything is lit up except the mouse. This things I have tried is: - trying multiple monitors (one at a time) - check to see if bios is updated, it is. Version 22.4 - resetted cmos by removing the battery and wait 10min (i do have 2 pins but dont have thing to short it) - put in the old cpu works fine - pins look fine, no bends Things I haven't tried: - uplug the unnecessary hardware, ex: extra hdd's - haven't tried the second time - dont have two motherboards to test if its a bad mobo, cpu, or psu - havent tried replace the gpu with a gtx550 Spec's: Cpu: orginally a fx 6300 Mobo: msi 970 gaming Ram: 16gb 4x 4gb hyper x Gpu: Powercooler red devil rx 580 8gb Psu: 500w evga 50+ bronze

Kova White, because I need a new mouse due to the fact that I'm using a mouse that came from a Windows XP e-machine... yeah.

Thx! I've looked into the dual core before and I absolutely love it, but what brought me away from it is due to it having only 2 cores but, if I don't get the 400-450 in time than th G3258 is the way to go. yeah i know it better but because I decided to have a CPU with 3.5ghz or high with either quad or 6 cores i decided to have a 750ti and im ok with not having that amazing graphic card. When the 950 does come on sale this black friday ill buy that instead but for now the 750ti sc is on sale so it depends. But thanks for the list and ill take it into consideration!

This is the first time I'll be building a gaming desktop and would like to have as much advice and tips I can get. I'm willing to learn! Anyways, I've been looking into the parts and trying to understand it for around over a year and finally got some money for Black Friday. I've picked out the parts already and thinking of OC it but.. I want double check if any of the parts I've picked is compatible with each other and if I can even overclock it I don't mind if it a little over $400 US just hoping it not at $450 and planning to buy the parts on Black Friday, oh and their is no hard drive because I already have the hard drive. A 2.5in. The games I want to run is World of Tanks, War Thunder, World of Warships, Garry's mod, Burnout Paradise, Portal 2, possibly Minecraft. I don't mind lowering the graphics settings in any game as if i can play it with at least a descent constant of 60 FPS than I'm fine. I'm coming from console and from your joe average laptop. Here are the parts I have picked out so far: CPU - AMD FX-6300 Vishera 6-Core 3.5GHz (4.1GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 95W FD6300WMHKBOX Desktop Processor or AMD FX-4350 Vishera Quad-Core 4.2 GHz Socket AM3+ 125W FD4350FRHKBOX Desktop Processor (I can't decide, does anyone know the difference between the two? I'm aware what have more cores can do and typically a quad is good enough but I like more cores for.. what ever reason, I really don't know why.. more the better right? but willing to do sacrifices!) Mother Board - GIGABYTE GA-78LMT-USB3 (rev. 6.0) AM3+ AMD 760G + SB710 USB 3.0 HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard RAM - ADATA XPG V1.0 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model AX3U1600C4G9-DR GPU - EVGA 02G-P4-3753-KR G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 750 Ti Superclocked 2GB 128-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Video Card Heat sink - Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO - CPU Cooler with 120 mm PWM Fan (now.. not exactly sure if I need this, only if i'm going to OC and it will of course bring down the price if I don't OC and don't but this and I can use the one that comes with the CPU soo... Explain this, do I need this or not?) Power Supply - EVGA 100-W1-500-KR 500W ATX12V / EPS12V 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Continuous Power Supply 3 Year Warranty (I didn't look into this thoroughly be nice to know what exactly I need) Tower - Fractal Design Core 1000 FD-CA-CORE-1000-USB3-BL Black Steel MicroATX Mid Tower Computer Case and Thermal Compound - Arctic Silver 5 High-Density Polysynthetic Silver Thermal Compound AS5-3.5G - OEM Again this is the first time of actually finding out if the parts are compatible and will be the first time building it. I'm the person who always likes to double check things and even triple check. Just want know what I need to know and what needs to be done. Have I done good?
