Hey all.
So I'm starting to overclock my CPU. My CPU is the fx-8320 with the CNPS12X fan. I first started at 3.8 then 4.0 then 4.3ghz with intelburntest at maximum setting (stress level). PS. My motherboard is the GA-970A-UD3
@4.3 I got an error and my system did an auto reboot. I tried again just to see (since i thought 4.3 wasn't that high with the cooler i got) and it jammed the screen. At this level, I have gotten temps no higher than 41Cel.
I'm wondering whether this is because I'm performing at maximum stress level, and whether this was acceptable to test for stability?
Thanks.
