AMD FX-8320

Weird it was CnQ. I always thought under load it wouldn't bother clocking down as long as temps were reasonable.

Definitely set your Vcore, rather than having it on auto. To get higher multipliers stable, bump up the voltage a tad and try again whilst keeping an eye on temperatures.

I like the post above which says the 2500 and 8320 are good for some games and not great at others

I buy AMD and they get hammered in WOW

Ohh yes that's my most played game!
Figures...

Hmmm i've tried loads of settings this evening I think my cooler isn't good enough, anything over 4.3 is getting too hot 62+, (it's not bios crashing but 62 is getting to hot?) i've tried taking down the volts on a higher multplier to keep temps below 62 but then the computer is freezing so do you think I have reached MAX speed on my current cooler?

What voltage are you using?

GavinG · 28 Aug 2013 at 07:14

Im at work now but from what I remember it's 1.320-1.395 depending on what I put in the cpu vcore adder

It may be your cooler, temps are quite high.

People can get 60C with higher clocks/voltages than that.

Hi Gavin

Just to update you from my post, currently have 4.4ghz stable for an hour @ 1.344v, temps are creeping to a max 59, but generally around 55. Will try and get some screens for you with my settings.

That would be great swordfish
