Hi, i was overclocking my fx 6350 3.9 ghz vishera processor, just seeing where i could go with the stock cpu fan while keeping it under 60• c. I ended up getting a stable system at 4.4 ghz and had about 5 celcius to 60, so i tried to push to 4.5. The screen ended up freezing afrer i ran prime95 (i assumed it was low v-core, ramped it up by .5 after .125 didnt work and it did). After that, my cpu fan started getting very low rpm's and wasnt cooling sufficiently. The mobo says it's at about 3,600 in bios but it's way less than it was running at before, and the mobo said the same speed. Its no longer cooling very efficiently even at stock settings. The cpu fan has been ran for at most 24 hours. I cant seem to figure out how to get speeds back up. Ive tried auto speed, manual, etc. i was running it at the 2.50 slope setting
