    [SOLVED] When powered on, PC turns on and Immediately off.

    I have been doing a CPU overclock through AMD overdrive but this issue hasn't always been since I've overclocked so I do not think that is the issue. Also I have not done anything to my bios, so I am doubtful on that as well. Also it isn't really a boot loop. It is just when i press the power...

    FX-8320 core randomly spike to 4GHz. Why?

    Ok, so since I got my new processor, the fx-8320, my overall cpu temps have risen about 10-20 degrees C. My idle is anywhere between 16 degrees to 29 degrees. I found it odd that it would hit 30 and so i opened Core Temp just to make sure everything was running at what it should be. I OCed my...
