FX-9590 /w 990FXA with Ubuntu 16.04 for sci computing FREEZ

[sci_comp]

I have AMD FX-9590 8-Core 4.7GHz with MSI 990FXA Gaming+ cooler master Nepton 140XL, with 4xKingston 8GB Fury Black and ASUS R5 230 1GB + 120SSD and 1TB HDD. OS: Ubuntu 16.04.
When ever I start doing computations in parallel, after sometimes it freezes. No BSOD, nothing, just stuck. I've monitored temperature and it never goes above 50C, even on full load. Any advice?

Typical of the FX9000 series , 100's of posts like this and they never get resolved. Best bet is to sell it and build on a new platform. They run too hot and very very unstable.

An alternate solution is to run the CPU at a lower frequency and then check if it's stable.

A. run the cpu at 4ghz since these are very unstable cpu's not recommended to do basically anything intensive on
B. sell and get something new since these cpu's are garbage since they are extremely unstable and it's rare to have one running stable at their stock frequency.
