m5a99x evo r1 compatible with 9590?

scottman5044 · Nov 24, 2014

Ok so I have a Asus m5a99x evo r1 not r2!!! And I have been running a fx 8320 @3.7ghz turbo for 2 years and it works great. I am looking at upgrading but my motherboard is starting to become dated. Will it run a fx 9590 and be stable? Just wondering if I can save money and keep my motherboard or if I should just wait awhile longer and save for a whole New mobo and cpu.

Your FX 8320 is fine

FX 9590 is not listed in the supported CPUs
http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A99X_EVO/HelpDesk_CPU/
FX 9590 is 220W but mobo supports CPUs up to 140W

You have luck since you dont need 220W heater !

if your GPU out-dated , get GTX 970

if you need a good upgrade go Intel Core i7 4790K , no more stuttering
benchmark

Maybe this:

Z87 G.1 Sniper: http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4802#kf

Z97X G.1 Sniper Gaming 5: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4953#ov

Z97 ASUS SABERTOOTH Z97 MARK 2: http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/SABERTOOTH_Z97_MARK_2/

Z87 ASUS SABERTOOTH: http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/SABERTOOTH_Z87/

That 4 with i5 4690K

Or AMD:

990FX Asus Crosshair V Formula-Z: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/CROSSHAIR_V_FORMULAZ/ (For 9590)

990FX Asus M5A99FX PRO R2.0: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A99FX_PRO_R20/
(I own this one, its very good. I managed to OC 8350 to 4.525MHz and i can do more. )

990FX Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD5: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3891#ov

990X Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3901#ov

You can easily OC your 8320 to a speed similar to 8350. no reason to buy a new CPU.

Buy a new GPU later on buy an CPU.

If you dont have good quality PSU look here: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/id-1804779/power-supply-unit-tier-list.html

I have Seasonic M12II EVO 620W. Its very good PSU. Fully modular and its not expensive.
