amd fx 8320 overclocking

[Darko_1]

My PC:
Amd fx 8320 3.5ghz
motherboard msi 760gm-p21
graphic card: Msi Nvidia 650 gtx ti 1086 mhz core and memory 1425mhz clock
i want to overclock my cpu at lest 4.4 ghz i got zero infinity free flow+ cooling
http://www.vortez.net/index.php?ct=articles&action=file&id=13410
but got 1 problem my sensor for temperatue on my cpu not working well its showing
ridiculously high numbers like 206 degree (when am playing game,ofc obviously is not correct), starting from 30 to 60 after 60 degg jump on 206, and pc is cold as ice, not even h of hot,so am wondering what of those clocks should i use and what voltage, ofc i dont want to harm my pc or even burn cpu, if any 1 could help am thankful!

You have bigger chance of blowing MB than processor.

So what am sopouse to do noting? 😀

It has poor VRM section and 95W max and if your processor is not FX 8320E (notice "E" at the end) it's already pushing 125W without OC. At 4.4GHz it would already need 140W.
I wouldn't chance any OC on it.

Thanks for answer, its not E its regular 1 so its already using 125W without oc 🙁 so to get new motherboard maybe? is it worth?

youll need a god cpu cooler as well

 

[Darko_1]

Did you check that 1 i got? It's really huge and good cooling.

 

[Darko_1]

What do you guys propse to buy of fallowing motherboards:MSI 970 Gaming,ASROCK Fatal1ty 970 Performance,ASROCK 990FX Extreme3,MSI 970A SLI KRAIT Edition? Thanks

 

[madmatt30]

Out of those the asrock 970 fatal1ty.

I'm not a big fan of asrock but they got just about everything right with that board.

Your cooler is fine , your motherboard is awful & shouldn't even be running the 8320.

 

[Darko_1]

Any other motherboard? Propouse me one you think is best for this cpu, and am planing to get gtx 960 asus strix 4gb soon, ofc 1 where i can overclock my cpu I bought complete spec like 3y ago, then i changed cooling,gpu card, and housing, thats what am also wondering how this shit of mb running this cpu Hahaha 😀

 

[grimsin]

Sorry didn't see that cooker, it's good.
If you want to overclock don't get a 970 chipset. Get something like a Asus sabertooth 990fx

 

[madmatt30]

gigabyte 970a-ud3p , had mine upto 4.8ghz on that board with 1.4v - insanely good voltage regulation.

 

[Darko_1]

Huh guys, grimsin that 1 you told me is 155e and 1 madmatt30 told is 75e really huge difference in price, see those links for your selfs

i dont want to spent lot of money lets say around 100e +- 15

 

[madmatt30]

For the budget conscious the ud3p is THE overclockers board for the 8320/8350 CPU's IMO.

As you've just found to match it on a quality basis you have to spend double for a 990 series board.
The 990 chipset has a few extras which to the majority of users make no difference

Used the ud3p in over a dozen build with 8320s , minimum oc was 4.3ghz , max 4.8ghz.
Those figures are CPU rather than board dependant , there is no guarantee your 8320 will do 4.4GHz but that will be nothing to do with the board.

My 8320 sits daily at 4.3ghz on less than stock 3.5ghz voltage.That isxentirely down to the quality of the boards voltage regulation.
€75 is an incredibly good price

Madmatt30 Thanks for help and advice, i will get then that 1, anyways am not planing to get new cpu soon, any other mb is better then this one i got right now. Thanks everybody for help and advices, really I appreciate you help guys!
