When i overclock in the bios i would use AMD OverDrive to check voltage temps etc
Lately AMD OverDrive has become a problem its changing clock speeds on its own voltage and i have not done any automatic overclock i only use the trusted bios
i have tried un-installing-re-installing and the problem still remains
I have done sorten checks and i truly can say i don't know what is causing this at-all
If anyone has any slight clue what this is please help me with this problem as its driving me mad
Kind Regards
Kyle

Just use your bios to Overclock. Then monitor using HW monitor or your choice of monitoring. I use coretemp for my cpu, and firestorm or gpu-z for vid card.
HW monitor is said to be pretty reliable. Others will soon post in with advice. Solarstarshines is in my opinon the AMD expert so hopefully he will post in soon.
Sorry I was late to the party on this thread but core temp is more reliable then speed fan
that and HW monitor those programs are as close as it gets it shows socket temps and CPU temps
Generally with AMD you want to retain a 10c margin of error because it is rumored that the temps are a little off but not by much I have went by the temps for years and perfectly fine with in specs
If you like you could use the AI suite software but I found it annoying it gave warnings on temps that weren't even close to being hot
I would also advise of using overdrive to only tune GPU or Afterburner I would not use it to monitor my CPU based on it being software that can cause conflicting results
