Update: I have brought things back down near stock values and will tread more carefully.~ I don't believe 80+ Voltage Regulators should run that hot~ I have no idea what the problem could be and am still in the dark. It looks like I won't be able to push 4.4GHZ on this mobo.
Ultimate Question: Should I Be Concerned? (any game pushes this thing to 73-78c)
Okay so everything seems to be running fine at 4.4GHZ (Testing purposes) to check and see how far things can be pushed. My temperatures seemed all but fine and normal under 55c (Northbridge runs about 7c hotter on this mobo) Except for this.....thing? I don't know what to call it: IRF IR3564B on HWINFO sensors:
It hit a what id like to call dangerous Celsius levels and only noticed it after core #6 temporarily died and PRIME95 started to run at a max 88% usage instead of the expected 100% to which I thought the core died. (It went back to normal) after an in the moment emergency PRIME95 shutdown.
It's currently idling at 59c and my questions are is this normal? what does it mean? Do I need a fan aimed at something or better ambient temperatures. I just have no clue what I'm looking at.... and cant find any information on it~ and all I know is it shut down one of my cores on full load within the first 30-seconds of PRIME95.
As you can see in the picture below my "Voltage Regulator" is running at a high [87c] while PRIME95 is running things at max. It began shutting down my FX-8350 cores to cool them down. (AKA.-Extreme Throttling) 4.4GHZ to 1.4GHZ)
