    it dosnt matter that DOSNT go thats the one thing about AMD parts ppl think just cause they fit they go it may request more than Xw (or what u think) of power in a milasecond to preform an operation. Its an X6 it can also "fit" in a mini itx board... that dosnt mean it goes there lol. Im not sayiing it wont work but that kinda build ask for complications. Also alot of those boards that were not desinged at all to run X6 wont run it anywhere near its full potential (some not even half) and or have sacrificed "something" to make them work. Im just trying to help i have. Itx boards and MATX boards that have updates too they always run funny with stuff WAY above them some wont even boot. Ive got a crosshair IV for my 1090 i know. Im just saying i dont think it was your cpu part. Have u tried underclocking too? either way u can see where the waste of $$$ comes in even if u do

    Ummm 1st off it wasn't a 300W PSU it was a 400W, 2nd it only costs 30-40$ more then a 955 over here, 3rd a 955 or any other CPU cant be unlocked to a X6, it was not an upgrade, it was a complete build and is going to be used for CPU intensive programs more then anything else hence why i got the X6, and is cheaper then an i7 940 at the same performance. I went with the Corsair PSU as they are very good PSU's and is rated at the highest Volts on a single 12v rail. This system doesnt need anything more as the only intensive power hungry part of this build was the CPU and it wont even draw half of what the PSU can give out.
