AMD FX-8350 Vishera CPU Review COMMENT THREAD

[sa seba]

I did it. Couldn't help myself.
I have the 8350 running at 4.5GHz with a H80i on quiet, bumped the core voltage up to 1.380 and it's running nicely.

Very nice , currently @ 4.6 @ 1.4v on mine. Still tryin to do some more scaling/testing based on wot's

What temps do you get on full load with your hyper 212?
I am getting up to 53 celcius after an hour of prime. The H80i seems less effective than I thought.

Get mine yesterday I push it at 5120 with the cores at 1.524 56'C under OCCT EK supremacy , in the garage, room temp of 17'C

Hm, I think I just experienced... e-shrinkage.
Will try some more later with my measely H80i.

So far i thought i was doing 4.6 .... but it seems like anything over 4.4 i get lockups at odd times like accessing the net thru another browser window?

Im honestly at a point in time that I am not shure if i had a dud for oc'ing chip or if maybe its a motherboard limitation or something else at this point in time ..

How about a fresh and barebone windows install without flash and the such to eliminate any 3rd party fuckery?
Adobe Flash used to give me some nice lock ups.

terrybear, I might have missed it, but looking over your past relevant posts (to this issues), I have not seen you listing your mobo's BIOS version. At the moment the revision is at 1604 (for the ASUS M5A99X Evo - ASUS - Motherboards- ASUS M5A99X EVO), I would highly recommend for your to flash your BIOS and other relevant mobo subsystems (Audio, Chipset, LAN) for a good measure. In my experience, my M5A99X Evo did become more stable during the occasional OC, even though I don't push mine into the extremes plus I am still running a 1090T.

I am running the 1604 bios yes ....

I have so far figured out the locking up was occuring cause of as you mentioned sa, flash ... i re-downloaded & installed the latest one & the issue of lockups has been resolved.

Currently 4.5 ghz 22.5x multi @ 1.4v's (fluxuates around 1.39v) ...... Heats never the issue, never seen it in game testing or "catzilla" go over 42c ..

[terrybear]

So, after deciding to tweak the load line settings from auto/100% to 110% Im now stabilily @ 4.6 ghz @ 1.4v (varies 1.38-1.392 in cpu id).

Will try pushin it higher in awhile ... but happy with it at its current clocks.
