Bsod, when computer under stress

Go to solution Solved by NelizMastr,

That motherboard has a very poor VRM. It will output 125W but it will cause the VRM to run at over 100 degrees C and then throttle or crash.

You will fry your board at some point with that CPU. You'll need a high end AM3+ board to properly run an FX8300 or FX9500 CPU or a LOT

of cold constant airflow directly on the VRM.

pc specs:

- Amd fx-8320

- Gtx 560 ti windforce 

- Corsair  8gb ram in dual channel

- Gigabyte ga-78lmt-s2 mobo

- Seventeam 620W psu

- 1x Pny cs900 120gb ssd, this where the OS is installed

- 1x Seagate 1tb hd

-Windows 10 x64

(i bought it used, and didnt reinstall windows so i dont know how old the installation is)

 

 

So i'm having this bsod when playing games and under heavy loads, for example it happens when i run cinebench r23.

it shows the stop code: whea uncorrectable error

I thought it as the gpu overheating as one of its fans are not working properly( already purchased a new one waiting for it to arrive), but it sometimes happens with the gpu cold.

so idk, could it be the PSU, failling to give enough power for my parts.

it showed some artifacts twice in the screen, and the second time it freezed with a bunch of red and white artifacts(but i think this was because of the gpu overheat)

i already followed a bunch of tutorials of troubleshooting this problem and it seems that is not a problem with software or OS, but i'm willing to try to reinstall windows. 

please help, i bought it last week and i can't really play with it because i keep corrupting my save files.

Whea uncorrectable is usually from a faulty Overclock of the CPU and/or Memory. 

 

Since your GPU is so old, it may be worth getting fresh thermal pads and paste on it as they're likely dried up unless you have done this previously.

I bought new thermal pads and paste together with the new cooler, but i have no idea if there is any overclock and how to disable it

FX processors are a bad value proposition compared to intel of the same era, AMD's bulldozer architecture was very inefficient and meh overall. compared to a similar product like an i7-3770, the intel chip ran circles around it in single threaded performance, and the only really good quality from the FX8*** was that the 8350 was a super overclocker and until relatively recently held the world record at something like 8.2Ghz under LN2.

It wasn't until ZEN that AMD became a contender again.

yeah, it really sucks these days.... I count my blessings that I built my system right before it all hit the fan...... the same system was "worth" just over 2x as much as I got it for when it was at its worst.

sorry in pcmasterrace,  just be honest and explain that u just payed 1450 for what u got and your wondering maybe if someone in your area could help u out with a new cpu or motherboard, theres lots of people that have components that they no longer use and would be willing to help you out
