Nice OC. How does it feel with games and such compared to what you had before?

The games are Mad fast I noticed right away one game had my charater moving like a real human should very clean and more graphic detail came into play

also Stormy since i did see max temps 61c why in the world does core temp report other wise

Or.... is it not really reliable to go by ATM oh by the way i went back to 4.4Ghz due to the WEI bsod and Im not really seeing much of a difference from 100 mhz

Seems to be an ongoing thing with CoreTemp and FX CPU's,

ALCPU Forums • View topic - AMD FX Series issue - model, temps, speed ..

ALCPU Forums • View topic - AMD FX-8150 Issues

ALCPU Forums • View topic - False Information on AMD FX 8120

so you're not alone in how it reads it.

 

[Solarstarshines]

So you think this will solve issue it is a cpu code MSI Global ? Mainboard - 990FXA-GD80

 

[stormy13]

I'd wait for the next update to CoreTemp first, seeing as it is mentioned in the 4th post of the third link above.

True that is what i read as well Smart guy

New Psu I think this one is Bottlenecking me

Pretty much like im saying My PSU needs to be Replaced

Im figuring Between these choices cause im sure i could get a 4.6 stable if i had more power ,I have too much running on a 700w Psu maybe 800-850 even considered a 900w

I got a few choices but won't be able to do anything till next week Other things going on but anyway take a look and let me know what you guys think

[Solarstarshines]

That one seems to be Promising ,Im glad you thought that would be a good one been eyeing that one for a while

 

[tw33k]

I've got an AX 750 Gold. You can't go wrong with Corsair

Yup, same here and Speccy show the right figures as well. Memtest must have a flaky crust.

memtest always takes quite awhile to get the reporting right with newer chipsets. Quite awhile.

Yep. Corsair is worth the coin. You'd be fine with either the 750 or 850 with your current setup.

im pretty new to overclocking but have read loads b4 i actually got round to doing some. i must be one of the lucky ones as i have read that plenty of peeps have probs running ram @1600 with the 965be.
current oc,
cpu 3.9 @stock voltage 1.375v
NB 2.4 @ 1.15v
ram 1609, 1.65v 9,9,9,24,41,2T
gpu msi factory oc

i havent tried for 4.0Ghz as yet.
all is stable to my knowledge but if anyone spots anything that i should change or mistakes ive made id apreciate the feedback.
thanks

You can hit 4.Ghz on stock with out adjusting voltages when you go past 4 Ghz voltages need to be changed but ussually stock at 1600mhz ram it will just do the 4Ghz without much tweeks but then again depends on the board and what you are using

I know when i used a Am2+ i could only get it to 3.8 and belive me the different is very minor with where your at now

cheers for the reply. il prob just stick where i am now

 

[Britton30]

Ganjiry that looks like a good overclock. Very nice temp too, mine would hit the 60s. I think people have issues with running 1600 RAM because they don't realize all CPUs except Bulldozer and the newer Intels default to 1333 and manual settings are needed.
Good job.

No problem your right at 4 Ghz so i doubt you would see anything else but it's very nice I bet you have steady gameplay especially with a 6950 superclocked edition

speakin of bulldozers i think im gonna get me an fx81/20 or50 be after aprill. hopefully
yeah games run really well on it but i only really play bf3 as much as i can lol. thats pretty much all i use my pc for. except downloading/streaming movies.
