Hello all, me again... :D 

SO since i installed this cpu my PC crash once every day, just freeze up and all i can do is hit restart button. I havnt OC'd or anything. Most of the times i have HWMonitor on and playing Planetside2. Like 20mins ago it froze agai, was opening an rar file on my slave hdd and it froze again.

It doesnt freeze up in game, but when i sometimes alt tab or exit it.

I didnt reinstall windows when upgraded my cpu!

SO what can be a problem? isnt overheating as after hours of gameplay i hit 40C max.

I dont know how to do it properly, plus gigabyte have only beta driver for bios and there is no explanation what that update does. But ive read, that rev 4 already comes with supporting fx cpus....but i really dont know anything about bios stuff...


Ok, so gigabyte homepage have F3h. 2014/08/27. 1) Beta BIOS 2)Update CPU AGESA code

I have @BIOS that offers only same update that i already have...i think: AMD 990FX AMI BIOS, Ver F2

and my current one is American Megatrends Inc. F2. 7/15/2013

So safest way is to wait for that update to hit @BIOS so i can update my bios without fkn up anything?!
