that would be 70$ towards any new half decent board you can get

This board is a decent one for its price. I paid £100 for a new one and on newegg for you yanks its 93$ thats a great price for a great board

You have no heatsink on the vrms and i think its only 4 +1 power phase on it which isnt good for overclocking anyhow

Do yourself a favour and ditch this peice of horse manure and buy yourself a decent board

whoever recommended you this board needs shooting!

I just got the board yesterday, ordered it with the processor. No one recommended it (Newegg sort-of did, I was just sorting by best rating for AM3+ boards, and this one was in the top 10, was under $100, and had 4 memory slots). I almost got the Biostar 880GZ because I was using the 880G+ with my 965BE, but it's a micro ATX board with 2 memory slots again, so essentially the same exact board with an updated socket and chipset, and I want to have room to expand to 16GB+.

So yes, it can be sent back to NE, the problem is that I don't have money to get anything else outside that price range right now. Can you recommend anything for about $80 max?

I might be able to swing that price. I don't care if it's open box, as long as it works and doesn't have heat sinks missing from it.

sorry kinda of a hijack question.

i asked this in another thread but this relates to it.

Just curios if it is worth the upgrade to a FX8350.

I am haveing no issues at all right now with my 1100T but curios about the FX's.

I don't game as much as I used to now. The only thing I play now is Guild Wars 2 and I am not unsatisified with the performance. i know that game uses the cpu more than the graphic card.

I do multitask alot. I have 3 screens at 1080p but I run them seperately. No desire to run them in 3D or all as one monitor. I do encode videos quite a bit.

I also "heard sorry read" that AMD will be bringing out the new cpu's next year.

So what are your thoughts assuming both chips at stock clock will i see a big difference?

If im honest my heart would say send that board back and save up for a decent one or you going to end up paying twice.
For 80$ you not going to get a half decent board to overclock with.

out of this list the lowest i would go for is the gygabyte ud3 but even then id have to push myself to buy it.

ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0 is a good price at 119$ after rebate

Newegg wants $14 to print a return shipping label?! After they had an incorrect product description that says it supports 125w FX processors when it doesn't? This is BS... mad.gif

I thought I had $100 to get a refund on this one and buy another board, but as it stands, if I have to pay $14 return shipping plus wait 3-5 business days after they get it back to get a refund, I'll have to deal with it for now. I have 30 days, and it runs stable for everything but stress tests. I'm going to have to save up for a couple weeks first, order something else, THEN return this one once the new one comes in. Sigh...

Might as well save up a little extra while I'm at it and get some 1600-1866 memory with it too.

So what are your thoughts assuming both chips at stock clock will i see a big difference?
I own both and I put a lot of stock into upgrading to the 8350. It's a great processor and gets about 10 fps on average, better than the x6 phenom II. Did I need to upgrade, probably not. If you have the cash get the FX.

I've tried everything. Took out the RAM and reseated, ran Memtest86+ to make sure it wasn't that. Ran for an hour with no errors found there. Went into the BIOS and disabled AMD Turbo Core and Cool 'n Quiet, and also noticed while I was in there that the BIOS appeared to have my memory incorrectly over volted @ 1.6v (manufacturer says it's supposed to be at 1.5v stock), so I adjusted that just to be safe. Booted back in and got another Sumout error on core 6 in P95 within 5 minutes, OCCT errored on core 0 within 3 minutes.

Interestingly, OCCT reported min/max CPU frequencies at 3145/4510 with Turbo and CnC off. Seems a bit odd... it jumped between 3.15 and 4.5 GHz? Voltage is a little more consistent now @ 1.26/1.38. Any thoughts?

Hi,

Don't know if you've solved this in any way, but I can tell you this: from what I've seen on my setup, anything that has AMD APM enabled (makes the speed throttle down when a certain TDP is exceeded) will cause P95 to throw errors and even IBT to fail. So if I have an OC that's stable at a certain voltage and then I turn APM on and try to stress it then it fails. This also happens with everything on STOCK, no overclock, because APM is on by default, it is needed for Turbo mode to work as far as I know.

So, if you still have the config, try disabling APM (AMD Application power management) in BIOS and then re-test. Maybe it helps.

Cheers!
