With the cold temps headed my way, I'll also be looking to go faster too.
I'll have it setup this evening and see what happens. You should get my me sooner or later with the 9370 but I promise I won't make it too easy for you.

Hmm guys mind help me find a good budget air cooler for the 8350? It seems that the Hyper Evo 212/Turbo is kind of phased out here or rare, I'm from the Philippines btw and I won't be extremely OC'ing this prolly just sit around 4.2 or 4.5ghz 24/7 (atm stock everything).

<--- Specs (want to change cpu cooler 1st, the jet loud stock one is killing my ears)

I'm in a bit of a pickle coz I have very limited stores that sell some "branded" stuff. Care to point out a good alternative?
Here are my sellers and their part list:

Quest Logic
PC Net Miles
Oxvor
TechJunction

It seems their common coolers are of DeepCool brand. If all else fails I'll prolly have to wait half of the year so all my loans are paid off and get a Noctua one, but opinions are still open.

Thanks (hoping that I've asked in the right club)

A good and prosperous 2014 to all of ye! :love:

~~ Psyk

EDIT: I'm not confident enough in using CLC or building my own wc stuff all of those are scary for me (water/liquid + electronics)

so just point out a good aircooler so I can set a goal

My best advice would be to see what you can afford and what's available then compare to what you know. Check reviews on that particular cooler. It'll take some time and just remember that the FX is one hot chip.

@Bones, I managed a 12m 47.953 in 32M last night. I still don't have the finesse figured out on that one. I was running at 5.794 if you can believe that http://www.overclockers.com/forums/showpost.php?p=7605487&postcount=1404

Bones · Jan 3, 2014

Yes, cold is your CPU's friend - Or foe if it has a CBB/CB but these chips don't have that.
Beats what I've been able to pull off so far but you know I can go faster yet myself. I did say though your CPU should be able to outpace mine in the end since yours is supposed to be that much better anyway.

I'll see what I can come up with soon, messing around with the Intel setup ATM.

Looks good!
Now see how close you can get to us in 32M Super PI. :rolleyes:

Wishing I could score that high in Super PI.

Bones · Jan 5, 2014

Hey Johan - I have an idea for catching up with you.
Maybe I'd need to use something like this:

Yeah, I'll have to pound on it with this until it decides to run.... Or maybe...

?????

Hmmm... Looks interesting here.

Now I get it!
Need to do something like this really soon... Wait a sec - I already have and this is it.

Best part is it didn't cost much at all to do and it works great.

Just wait until I get it setup again.
And if it doesn't do the trick, you'll make me have to breakout the "Big Boy", also made by yours truly.

i must say thats ingenious! i saw the first pic and was like DAFUQ!

I saw a post ages ago might've been yours where the NB was at 2800/3000 or so...was wondering how much voltage u were using?

On a side note why are you guys using single threaded SuperPi? HyperPi or POVRay would be more suitable for Vishera.....

Cheers

Durvelle27 · Jan 6, 2014

I only used up to 1.35v on NB

Wow is that all....... Was that Vishera and 2800mhz? Sorry I forgot.....

I have 2800mhz on my PII 955 but 8320 only stable up to 2600 atm...

Ive benched with mine up to and above 2.8ghz on cpunb but used 1.42v

Be very careful with cpunbV as it gets the chip hot very quick.

.

The 9370 and 8350 are different but I don't know if I'd go so far to say the 9370 is " better" I can run some benches better with the 8350 over the 9370.

I have had the voltage up higher than even D1nks is saying and hitting nearly 3100 but I also have exceptional cooling.

You can say that again buddy. Also adds to instability. If it's backed down you can clock higher at times.

I got my FX-8350 a few days ago. I love this processor, but i have a problem.

I used to run an FX-6200 @4,4Ghz stable. With the new processor, after 5-15 mins of prime95 the entire computer freezes. It doesn't bluescreen or cut out, it just stays there and the fans slow back down(since the processor cools back off...).

I'm trying to run it at 4,5ghz @0,025v offset. Higher offset makes itm freeze quicker, lower offset makes it run longer but bluescreen/error out eventually.

When loaded and overvolted, the motherboard/cpu emits a high pitch noise. It's always done this on the FX-6200 also, so i doubt it's related. The VRM's get very hot, but sticking a fan to their heatsink only made it freeze EVEN faster.

I'm losing hope here... Does anyone know what this could possibly be?

PC with VRM-fan(which i have removed since)

Norton · Jan 6, 2014

Did you update the BIOS when you switched out the 6200 for the 8350?

* there are a bunch of BIOS updates related to "improved system stability" that have been released since the first one supporting the 8350- last one issued was on 1/2/2014

Random Murderer · Jan 6, 2014

Fan should be blowing air onto that heatsink, not evacuating it. But agreed, it's probably PSU. I know those Visheras get very power hungry when you start overclocking.
And Norton, good call. Had completely forgotten about that. Had to do it on my UD5 due to stability issues.

I haven't done so on the swap, but it has been updated about a month or two ago. My power supply is 650w unit by Spire.. couldthat mean anything?
