Hey, so i have a Amd Phenom II x4 965 Black Edition and its stock speed is 3.4Ghz, It performs about 314 in cinebench, i decided to OC my cpu to 3.6Ghz, for some reason when OC to 3.6Ghz it performs worse! It gets about 233 in cinebench when overclocked. when returned to stock it goes back up to 314 in cinebench!? Temps are fine (about 40 when OC under load). Its noticeably slower booting and opening apps too when overclocked. whats causing this?

It may possibly be that the motherboard only has 4-pin CPU power, but regardless I think you may have to live without the OC

Well I oc it to 3.8ghz a few months ago and got a score of 350 in cinebench. Also I haven't changed nthe vaultage, so I doubt its a power issue.

If you didn't increase voltage, your OC is probably unstable and won't support 3.6 at stock voltage. 

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Nah it's very stable. No crashing at 3.6ghz, just left the LLC on auto and that gives it some room for more vaultage if needed. I've ran stress tests and I doesn't crash At 3.6.
