AMD FX 6350 freezing up

[Lonewolf33651]

My AMD FX 6350 freezes up whenever it gets around 50-53 C. I started to overclock it and it would run fine until it hit 50ish degrees. I lowed the clock and did it again. I put it back to factory clocks and it still continued to do it. It is watercooled with a Corsair H55. It is on a MSI 970 Gaming motherboard. I have cool & quiet, C1E, SVM, HPC mode all disabled. Voltages are all factory static set. I get no warnings nothing. Shouldnt this CPU hit like 60 Before setting off alarms?

AMD FX 6350

MSI 970 Gaming Mobo

XFX Radeon R9 270X

8 GB G.Skill RAM\

Corsair CS650M PSU

Corsair H55 Closed loop cpu cooler

if your overclocking

more voltage increases stability 

best to find what people have overclocked to with your processor and copy them and tweak it acordingly

It happens with stock clocks as well. Its not stability

[kronickiller]

lock your core speed and leave the other 2 on auto

maybe its the ram frequency doing it

or LLC if u got that, llc screwed me at stock speeds

[Dabombinable]

Its possible that the temps are higher, since the temperature sensor is in the socket instead of the CPU, which means you don't know what the true temperature is. (The temps are calculated with an algorithm).

shouldnt be that far off 50 is well within tollerence

my money is on a setting somewhere else

LLC low on my system

anything different and my fx chip seems to cry

if it keeps doin it default bios and start over 

take the voltages off static might help doubt it but worth a try

also once u get it working

change one option at a time till u find which one does it

save ya alot of trouble with overclocking later

Kinda took what you said and went back to bios. Started looking around first and found cpu smart protection was enabled so i disabled it. However now (even with default bios settings) Windows keeps crashing and giving me a BSOD with Kernel errors. So it might have been related.

It's not temps, voltage and clock speeds are probably reason.

Disable AMD TurboCore, that made my 8320 crash a lot.

[kronickiller]

ya sounds like a frequency somewhere

start at ram lower speed if u gotta

them move on to the others

if ur really unlucky one of the crashes might of  dammaged windows and cause u to reinstall

TurboCore is disabled. It will actually underclock my cpu if its on.

Im running windows 10 tech preview so it wouldnt surprise me much

Yeah, and TurboCore spike up voltage and that's why it makes it crash.

Set a safe voltage.

Originally had it set at 0.01000V over factory

lol ya do u overclock in normal windows , when its stable

then put tech preview on

Not sure what you mean. The tech preview is basically a full OS but not the released version. A beta if you will. As soon as you boot it is in Windows 10 Tech preview. I own a box copy of Windows 8 Pro but none of my computers are running it right now.
