I currently use a 970fx mobo with a FX-8350 and boy am i mad..I get bluescreens constantly my voltage is always at 1.46-1.5 and that's on STOCK CLOCK speeds! so eventually I was told my motherboard was bottlenecking my eight core processor so i ended up buying the ASRock 990FX Extreme3.. And i wanna know if this will help the voltage and BSOD situation or will it not change at all?

Are you sure it's your motherboard? It could be other things like RAM. 1.46-1.5 is not unusual for the 8-core FX's

what do you mean by ram? I have 1866Mhz rip jaws and i run it at the clocked speeds

Many things can be the causes of bluescreens. Faulty RAM, drivers, your windows install, etc

I'd hate for it to be windows..Would have to reset everything (deleting games and all) ;(
