First off when I tried to overclock my fx 8320, it would underclock after about 1-5min of PC usage. starts off at 4.0ghz at around 1.4v to 3.7/3.5/3.2ghz at 1.3v.
after making sure everything in the bios had settings correctly like Cool N Quiet turned off and such i tried again at 4.0ghz and 1.3v i ran prime95 for about 15 min before it just froze. I was checking temps every few min with the last temp at 56c before it crashed a 1 min or 2 later. I used speccy and coretemp to check temps.
My specs:
Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit
AMD FX-8320
BE QUIET! DARK ROCK PRO 3 COOLER
8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 803MHz (11-11-11-28)
ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. M5A97 R2.0 (Socket 942)
MSI R9-270X
