Hello people.
I'm wondering whether the AMD FX-8350 is a good combination to put with the board listed, I've been reading up & people have said it tends to throttle because of the board. Some say if I keep the temps right it'll be fine. So what do I do? The rest of my build is as follows:
Ballistix 1866mhz 8GB DDR3
AMD FX-4100 @ 4.0GHZ (OC'd - This is to be upgraded to the 8-core)
ASRock 990FX Extreme3
CX600w Corsair Power Supply
1TB shitty HDD ^_^
On top of that CPU upgrade, to control the CPU overheating, whether the 8-core is unstable in this board I'll just stick a 6-core in here, I want to stick a "Corsair Hydro Series H60 2013 model High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler" for my CPU. Would this be a good idea? I'm also wanting to put either a 7970 or R9 280x in this build, along with another 8GB Ballistix RAM. Really need help here guys, thanks in advance.
