Computer Halting

Hi, so I looked in  CPU-Z and it changes randomly it goes from 1.344 to 1.355 etc. So is that automatically adjusted?

 

Yes. You will need to set it to a fixed voltage. Can you screen for me your BIOS UI?

What do you mean?

Does anyone have any 850w PSU recommendations? I might not actually need a 850w. But what would be good wattage? I was planning on getting this here: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/bmtm3C

I have an EVGA 850G2 and it's reasonably priced and gets a great rating from jonnyguru.com too.

Use a camera and take some photos of your BIOS

Thanks, but I really like the Coolermaster V750. But I will look into that later.

Ok, I will do that.

Sorry it took so long. http://imgur.com/4C9bq58 my mother board is really old. I really want to upgrade it but I need to fix this problem first.

Wow this is old school... Ok first you need to enable that Processor Maximum Voltage option so what you need to do now is to change Overclock mode to Manual, disable Turbo Core Technology, Disable C6 State and set Multiplier/Voltage Change to Manual

Then what? Because I dont want to have to come back here too look at what I have to do next. Also why do I have to disable those things? I don't get how the computer wont work with its default settings.

Basically, you want full control of your overclocking settings since when the computer manages it, it makes your PC halt. Set the Voltage to 1.3

Ok so for the C6 state do you mean, 'AMD C-State Support'?

Yeah

[FuriousFing]

Yeah

So change voltage to 1.3000?

[Faruko]

So change voltage to 1.3000?

 

Yup

[FuriousFing]

Yup

Ok I did all of that. Do I change Processor Voltage? Because Processor Maximum Voltage is still grayed out.

[Faruko]

Ok I did all of that. Do I change Processor Voltage?

 

Make that 1.3V

[FuriousFing]

Make that 1.3V

But Processor Maximum Voltage is still grayed out or was that not what I needed to change? I changed Processor Voltage to 1.3000 V

You want to change Processor Voltage. That will force the processor to use only 1.3 Volts

Ok thanks. I'm going to see if it works.

[Faruko]

Ok thanks. I'm going to see if it works.

 

Alright let me know how it goes

[FuriousFing]

Alright let me know how it goes

Ok. My voltage before I changed it was 1.175 V. It started up fine, now to test BF4

[FuriousFing]

Alright let me know how it goes

Also my web browser and some of my games like Minecraft and CS:GO are really lagging. Anyway to fix it?

[FuriousFing]

Alright let me know how it goes

Pretty much my whole computer is slow. Should I enable the C state and turbo thing again and see if it makes my computer faster?

Hold on mate, Your voltage is now 1.3 V correct? Now you need to start doing some safe overclocking. What's your processor again?

Yes I changed it to 1.3 V. My processor is a AMD FX 6300. I changed the C-State Support to enabled and it now doesn't lag and it doesn't shut down. Do you want me to change it back to off and follow what your going to tell me.
