So I bricked my old mobo for doing something real stupid. It's an MSI 970a-g46. It works fine.

Now i bought this GA-990FXA-UD3 mobo then I started having problems. The thing just crashes every 5 mins, if I'm lucky I'll actually get through 2 hrs without and crashes and I never had a BSoD. I tried running with 1 ram stick and 1 gpu and it's still the same.

My temps at
idle is 20-30ish
full load 58-60


Specs
FX8350 stock
corsair vengeance 16gb
H60 cooler
AX850
CF 7970s.

What could be the proble?

Okay, have you installed all the set motherboard drivers? It's best to download them online rather than using the CD. If you've done that, I have one more attempt for you.

Turn off your system. Go to the back of your computer, turn the PSU switch to off, and pull out the cord (very important, you risk damaging parts if you do not do this). Press on the clear CMOS button, which should be located on the back of modern day motherboards. If you don't have one, pull out the bios battery on the front of it, and let it sit out of the case for around 10 minutes. Once done, put it back in, and start your computer.

Have you tried reinstalling the motherboard drivers and such. There are alot of problems when switching motherboards due to drivers clashing, especially when different brands are involved. I always recommend a complete reinstall of an OS (Make sure you back up everything you need on another drive), when getting a new motherboard. Chances are drivers are clashing and they're all trying to implement settings and what not.
