What to do after throttled cpu replacement

[cdawall]

Not that I know of. You can turn turbo off somewhere in there. I am not fully familiar with that BIOS the only asrock board I have is AM1.

Christ alive, @Avengerpilot. I really have to tip my hat to all those who have stuck with you after all these different posts and threads about your 9590 and 990FX Extreme3. Next time, do some exhaustive research before putting together a PC and maybe you won't 1) buy a CPU that is wholly incompatible and possibly dangerous to operate with your board, even with throttling measures in place and 2) buy a board that would never make any "recommended" list for any price point.

Where is your motherboard manual? Why did you even think to start putting together your PC if you don't know how to locate multiplier and other basic CPU settings in the BIOS? Did you take a single look at the manual? Your board should have the old ~2013 style ASRock UEFI BIOS. It should be under OC Tweaker with all the other parameters related to CPU tweaking.

If you can't be bothered to refer to the manual, you could also do a google search, but no...also, please learn how to Edit your posts so that you don't end up posting two consecutive times for purposes that could be summed in a single post.



What you are referring to is probably AI Tweaker or some successor to it. It is Asus' name for an auto-OC utility in its BIOS. Half the time it brings Intel CPUs on stock coolers (for people who don't know better but still build PCs before they know better) to dangerously high temperatures and burns low quality or unheatsinked mosfets. It is an Asus feature, thus, you won't find it on ASRock; the closest thing for older ASRock boards such as my Z77 Extreme3 would be "Enhanced Turbo" or "Optimized CPU settings" but I'm not sure if your AMD board has this. Even if these auto-OC utilities exist, they would not help you because you need lower voltage and multiplier, not higher.

I did refer to the manual, however I bought this computer 2 years ago using cyber power and I was wholly uninformed, I did tons of research after my games started crashing and on different forums we deduced it was the cpu, but I wanted to get a new mobo, but I thought it wasn't getting enough power to the cpu so I got a new psu, then I realized it was the mobo, so then I was planning to get a new cpi, then I was waiting to buy it and flash forward now I ask all this stuff about computers because I finally find a competent forum and lo and behold my motherboard is complete crap and now I don't have money to buy a good one, and 2 CPU's one brand spankin new and one gently used, so I'm just going to see which one gets me more money and sell that one because there isn't much of a difference between the 2 performance wise and then I'll get a new motherboard, maybe the Asus but I'll ask the forum which one would go well with each one

Read your motherboard manual

My manual is pretty sparse when it comes to motherboard info, everything is incredibly generalized and here is the first time om. Hearing about VRM cooling and such

All I am going to say is that you may need to take your rig to a pc shop somewhere as you probablly have something way screwed somewhere if the 8370e is throttling. Hell if you couldn't even run the 9590 downclocked there is some kind of issued somewhere you aren't telling us. I run 3 matx rigs and a 970 chipset board with next to no cooling for the vrm's with 8320's and 8350's oc'd to 4.2 and they are rock stable and never throttle. They have been running that way 24/7/365 under 100% load for over a year now. SO if you have a 990Fx board and can't get it to run a 9590 at 8350 speeds or a 8370E at stock there is more of a problem then just the board or cpu. A 9590 is a highly binned 8350, so it can and will run at 8350 speeds. You may have some setting in your bios set totally wrong. Also you need to check gpu temps as well as cpu temps when the rig is throttling. Could be your gpu is over heating.
