CPU downclocking itself

[CoolaxGaming]

Actually i will have to get a new MOBO and processor , for investing a little bit more. Seems weird that a MOBO designed for this processor can't take the load

Not the mobo, the cpu is throttling, reducing its speed to save itself.

Get a better cooler or clean the stock one out

Then make sure it isn't thermal throttling due to overheating. The stock cooler isn't really enough to cool the 6-core Phenoms under load. Those things get hot

actually only when the computer starts get as high as 115C and then goes down to 40, but i played like an hour and stayed at 60C maximum :huh:.no problems at all when i was trying to get the failure

 

I have 2 120mm fans as intakes and 1 120mm for exhaust

Says that my MOBO suck a lot !, and the highest load is 95w, but running 1055T 4 years without issues and pulling as high as 133W, and right when i was trying to get the failure again it stayed completely stable :angry:

Can't you just buy a good AM3+ motherboard? Then you don't need to go downclocking, or parking cores. AMD processors are slow enough at single threaded applications. Slowing it down even more could make things... painful...

Anyway if i disable 2 cores, my TDP will be lowered? most games don't even use 4 cores so don't care disabling them

man, your mainboard has a 4pin cpu power design.

thats old school :,D And with a 125watt tdp processor... Idk

Some components in your pc get older and loose capacity... this could explain why it happened after 4 years

Actually is becouse its the first time im playing a CPU demanding game (no issues at all with bf4), last month got the r9 270 to keep the system for 2 or 3 years, depending on my job

my gameboy advance has a bigger cooler (actually not, but still funny)

Lower the vcore in your bios and open your computer sidepanel 24/7

Don't open the side panel. That kills the designed airflow of the case and allows more dust to get in the system. Bad idea.

Tell that to my windforce, it likes it.

windforce like wind >:-o

 

Edit: cpu likes it too,

Cpu like wind, wind like cpu. cpu+wind=cind

Well what mobo do you have?

Technically yes, it will pull what a similarly clocked Phenom X4 would pull

MSI 7641 880GMS -e35

 

I did already disable 2 cores, don't know how to measure if the system is pulling less energy but now is 10 degrees cooler
