i dont recomend using a piece of software to overclock your computer for you. if you turn it off unplug the pc wait for 30 secs and remove the cmos, this will clear any overclocking settings and then you can attempt to reboot with it back at stock speeds.

try rebooting in safe mode and seing if you can find out what is causing the error, also what tasks are using the ram? you should be able to go to processes in your task manager and click on memory and that will display what is using your ram.

Windows 10 disk usage is at 100% even though 0 read and write, nt kernal & system is using the rest of the disk ?? this is starting to annoy me since i cannot use the disk, the disk drive is a western digital 4tb green drive. i have replaced the sata cables numerous times, The nt kernal never...

New paste would be a waste, I've only experienced a 1c difference, best thing to do would find a lower stable clock so your not cooking your computer. Or you can do as said above and buy a new cooler, I know newegg has some dual radiator all in ones for 100$ that work really good.

I got a gigantic tube the size of my hand for 10$ I'm sure you can get something for 2$ on eBay, maybe 4$ not that expensive.

In my experience buying a small tube of thermal paste from your local tech store is easier. If you do the thermal paste, put a small pea size dot in the middle (with the CPU installed in the board and the board connected in the box) Also that 600w psu should run your gpu since all the new...

Newest catalyst yes even tried beta version

I recently crossfired a mis 7970ghz edition with a r9 280x asus brand. I have been getting frame drops in games. Full specs: amd fx 8350 asus formula z board 2x graphics cards and 16gb ddr3 memory 1080w psu (cooler power)

I would do like jack said a smell the psu, did you hear any popping noises or hear any motherboard beeping?

So far it looks good, make sure everything is compatible though, I bought all my parts from ebay. I have a sadion 120v water coolant on my cpu it's cheap and effective got my cpu down from 68c on air to 34c on water so it works well, make sure your gpu doesn't need more wattages also. You may...

Are you overclocking anything? If you are you may be going into the extremes and can you please list your computers components such as what board and what gpu?

All I am trying to do is add more external fans off another psu so I can cool my gpu/cpu down a lot more, it just runs very slow and id like to make it faster.

I did the paper clip test / bridging to my psu and all works well but the fan runs slower then it would when plugged into mother board, can anyone explain why it does this and if thier is a way to speed it up?

Thanks a lot man, I plan on getting a amd fx 8 core pretty soon do to the bottle neck (FYI i have it clocked from. 3.2 to 3.7 ghz stable and all asus power savers are off)

Thanks dude u saved my behind lol, now I have another issue, I know this gpu can hit more then 60fps in minecraft but it won't go above 60 is my amd phenom 955 iix4 bottle necking it? I have my old nvidia drivers uninstalled and the newest driver version for amd.
