Ok can you try this, in bios can you set the LLC to normal and test again, if it using more volts like that, go back to medium and try 4.3ghz.

a few mins into the test and it stopped and said the system was unstable . Should i drop it to 4.3Ghz and try again

humax · 22 Nov 2015 at 23:14

did the same test again @4.3 it ran a little longer this time but the temp hit 71C and blue screened

Ok your going to have to keep 4.2ghz for now, as the board cannot do the voltage right and your cooler is holding you back.

The only thing you could do is forget ibt and try getting stable for your video editing and within temps wise.

I don't really understand the ins and outs of motherboards, So is it the motherboard making the chip run to hot, or is it the chip that's running hot

Im no expert but im going to say motherboard and the cooler cannot handle it.

Tomorrow i will put my stock cooler on and see what temps i get.

humax · 22 Nov 2015 at 23:41

So do you think a better cooler might get the temps down or do i really need another motherboard like the GA-970A-UD3P. Or both

If you can send the motherboard back, you know with the ud3p you can input your own volts.

It really depends on if you want to spend money on a cooler.

To be honest the plan was always to get a better cooler as this one is getting on a bit. I feel a new thread coming on

Ok, shall we come back to this when you got a new cooler and are you going to be sending the board back.

humax · 23 Nov 2015 at 00:04

I'm think it might be worth trying a better cooler on it. But do you think another board might be a better way to go first

What would you say was a good temp for the 8350. Maybe something like low to mid 50s.

Well with the other board, it will show you your stock volts and can input numbers for overclocking, mine has been rock solid since i had it for a year, i have abuse mine to the max, 2fan headers dont work as i snapped them, spilled coolant all over the board, push 1.7volts into 1 of my cpu's.

Good temps are around 50-55c with a good air cooler and thats with overclocking to about 4.4-4.7ghz.

humax · 23 Nov 2015 at 00:28

So looking at what you saying i need to shave off about 10C on mine to get it somewhere near. I'm wondering if the Shadow Rock 2 could maybe do that.
