My pc ''shuts down'' when playing a intensive game. The monitor says hdmi signal lost. And than if i want to reset my pc the IO panel of the pc does not work. So i have to disconnect power.

I went looking for the couse and i think i found it but i'm not shure. I see that my motherboard is 50 / 60 degrees celcius in idle. http://prntscr.com/kzrqwg Could this be the couse?

I recently upgraded my CPU from a FX-6300 to a FX-8350, but i know that is not the problem because when i put the cpu in my other pc it works just fine.

PC specs:

AMD FX-8350 black edition
Cooler master liquid lite 240
MSI 760GM-P23 (FX)
MSI Gaming X 1060 3gb
10 GB DDR3 Ram
3,5 Hdd
2,5 Hdd
SSD
Corsair VS650
Corsair lighting node pro
4 120mm cooler master fans
 


Thanks for the response. But do you know if there is a micro atx motherboars with this chipset. Because i can onli find one with the AMD 970 / AMD SB950 chipset
 


And another thing.... It is not with all intensive games. I can play PUBG ultra with no problems. But when i start for example train simulator 2018 it ''shuts down''
 
They don't make them any more for that platform so finding them may prove difficult although a used one may be attainable easier.
In mean time you may want to drop frequency by 100 - 200MHZ and voltage should drop too, that much should not impact performance by much. At full load and speed 8350 can pull 150w+ and VRM is no match for that, 65 -95W at most. an FX 8320e would have been better match for that MB.
P.S, some games are more GPU and other ones CPU heavy so may behave differently.
 


What would you recommend for playing gta v lspdfr.

1. Buying other motherboard
2. Buying FX-8320e
3. Buying Ryzen 3 2200g

It has to be playable with 40 / 60 fps so low budget as possible.
 
Considering your discrete GPU, best thing would be Ryzen3 1200x or 1300x but that also means new (DDR4) RAM as well as MB (B450 chipset) at least. That would give you at least twice as fast base platform with great upgrade future. This one now is a dead end.
 


So the 970 / AMD SB950 chipset does not works with the FX-8300
 
Chipset itself does support FX 83xx (with appropriate BIOS) but its VRM section you have to worry about with 8 core chips.
I have GA-990XA-UD3 motherboard and FX 8350 and it can be pushed to 4.9 - 5GHz but that's after I placed a 60mm fan over VRM cooler. At 5GHZ and 1.5v it requires, it pushes upwards to 220W VRM has to supply.
 


OK, will the FX-8300 work with my MB? 95 w max
