I got a M5A99X EVO R2.0 and I bought a new procesor for my PC.
I got a Corsair with 800w power suply, 16GB - 1600 speed, video card - Sapphire Radeon R9 280X.
The problem is that after I play a while, my computer freeze.
Before I got this power suply, I was using a 670w power suply.
The temps are a little bit high (I think), they are on full load around 70 degrees celsius, and I am ussing a water cooling system for it.
What can be the problem with it? Thanks!

Time to retire it, or go back to whatever CPU you were using before. No significant difference between the FX8300, FX8320, FX8350, FX8370 aside from clock speed, which can be handled with a little overclocking. The 9000 series are just factory overclocked versions of these.

With 16GB of DDR3, I might suggest buying an Intel i7-4790k and Z97 motherboard, otherwise it is going to be $200 for DDR4 memory.


You are basically killing your board. It can't handle the cpu.

It won't the boards that do are over 200€. By that point just switch to a newer platform. Even the cheap 100€ ryzen 3 1200 beats a fx 9590 by a fair bit.
Even if you get it working most 9000 series cpu's are unstable and need to be downclocked to fx 8350 level which just ends up in a cpu that consumes more power, is unstable and is no better than the 8350.
