Can it be done? I know I can run an 8350 with bios update, but the 9590 is the same price so if I can run this I figure might aswell. Just bought a 1080 and figure CPU needs to be upgraded but don't wanna dump the money on a new mobo and cpu just yet. Nothing else is bottlenecking me with a 1080 is it? Thanks
9590 on crosshair iv formula?

I have thought about a external setup but then I thought it'd require a custom loop, and I thought custom loops meant more money but I knew it would be better than a simple closed loop thing like a h100.
Here's my current setup. It also has a slot for a side fan but it won't fit with the huge cpu cooler.Originally Posted by The Sandman
As odd as it may seem the 360 in front as intake would work best.
The exhaust off the rad really isn't that hot and when it mixes with the air already in the case, the temp difference over all (inside the case) normally won't change much at all. My case runs 3 rads all as intake (check rig sig) with one 140mm exhaust. This Xigmatek case is different as it has a huge steel mess insert (240mm x 280mm) within the clear window on the left case cover with a 200mm fan which has been removed and now is a simple free air exhaust port.
Have you given any thought to a external rad mount/set up?
It'll give you time to think/decide what your new rig will have/need and simply move the external setup inside in the next build. This also allows you to fully enjoy OCing with a lot less temp issue and is putting money towards the new rig! Think of what your future needs/wants might be.
This was my first set up with a NZXT M59 case using a 360 Rasa kit.
This rad is now in the front of my current setup.
To date, 5 yrs under water and not one issue. Lovin every minute of it![biggrin.gif]( "biggrin.gif")

Unless there's others that are a better option I just figured the newest would be better.
The thermaltake is all in one aswell https://www.amazon.com/Thermaltake-Static-Pressure-Cooling-CL-W107-PL12SW-/dp/B0196LP24M?tag=bestcpus-20&th=1Originally Posted by Dagamus NM
Get the 8370e and put the 360 inside your case. In a pinch you can do an all in one, h110 is a better choice though. Gain quite a bit of surface area. 140x280=39,200mm^2, 360x120=43,200mm^2, h100i is 120x240=28,800mm^2.
So a single 360 will have the greatest surface area of the three. The h110 is second and has the benefit of simplicity being an all in one. The h100i is not a good choice for an amd am3 chip.

Not necessarily. Thermaltake is the cheapest of cheap junk. Couldn't pay me to use one of their liquid coolers. On paper it will work like wherever they ripped off their design from, but quality control is non-existent there. Some thing you can get away with that on, liquid coolers not so much unless you enjoy ruined of gear.Originally Posted by Johnn999

So you think h110 is the best choice of all the coolers then, even over the h110i or h115 (i guess h115 is a hair smaller). Any specific fans to pair with this?Originally Posted by Dagamus NM

Biggest surface area on a non thermaltake should be your goal. What that looks like is entirely personal preference. I can only share what I have experienced.
I have used them and the work fine. The fans that come with it are not the best but not the worst. The h110i has the corsair link or whatever it is called now. This gives you the option to control your pump speed but the 110 is pretty quiet so that bit of functionality is up to you.Originally Posted by Johnn999

Mounting FX-9590 on Asus Crosshair IV Motherboard
I have successfully mounted the FX-9590 on the Asus Crosshair IV Formula. I have the BIOS 3029 for multiprocessor usage. It defaulted at 4.0 GHz, but I used the Evo or Turbo program to run the speed up to 4.70 GHz and my system is running cool and stable. I purchased a Thermaltake NiC C5 120 mm Untouchable CPU Cooler. It is rated to cool something running at 220 watts. It works as I have it maxed out and it keeps the CPU at 30-35 degree C. I am going to slow it down a tad as it is somewhat noisy at 2000+ rpm.

still great to see the big fx stomping along - keen to put one of mine in the civ extreme and see where it gets me - the power circuit should be good for it. love the fx platform

the 9590's run pretty cool at the factory 4.7ghz base clock. They have a LOT of room to undervolt at that default clock as well.
Nearly all the 9590's have a strong memory controller (well, for FX platform), so be sure to get extra performance by running your northbridge at a good speed. 2600mhz is doable for pretty much ALL 9590s with under 1.35 volts CPU-NB.
My 2017 chip does 2900mhz with a bunch of voltage (1.475) but it is not recommended to daily drive beyond 1.45 volts.
use HWinfo64 to see what the sensors display. You will want to set load line calibration so you get the same vcore from idle to load, or SLIGHTLY lower at load. This will keep the heat down significantly, and allow stronger memory controller and ram overclocking.
I currently have GSkill 2400mhz CL10 memory, and recently finished tweaking all the secondary timings after several months of occasional messing around. much snappier and faster system overall when comparing tweaked to drop in default settings.
be sure to mess with CPU VDDA voltage. This is the cpu PLL circuit, and the default 2.5 volts can be cranked to 2.6 or 2.65 and allow slightly less vcore to be used. CPU PLL is a voltage required to play with on nearly all 4.5ghz clocks and above when running standard 200mhz base clock. This voltage can be lowered to around 2.35 or 2.4 volts when using a large base clock (say 265mhz+) because the CPU PLL circuit doesnt get abused as much with lower cpu multipliers.
lower VDDA also slightly lowers core temps, so it pays to play with base clocks and rations for components
