Hi fellow enthusiasts,
I recently OC:ed my 965 x4 BE(I know it's ancient!) to a mere 3,7Ghz and it's been running fine on 1,475 Vcore, 2600 mhz nb as well as nb/cpu 1,2125. I've played intensive games for days and prime95d for 2,5 hours. Yet yesterday the computer shut it self down when I was watching a movie. I didn't just exit a game which makes vdrop seem unlikely and it wasn't a demanding task. I've tried to reduce nb to 2400 mhz/1,2V now but apart from that im not sure whta to do except turn the multiplier down 0,5 and settle for 3,6. I'm reluctant to do this however because even 3,7 is a bit of a let down. I purchased a new gpu the other day, a r9 290x, and the cpu is a bottleneck which I'm trying to minimize. Other info that might be relevant is that ram was set at 1600mhz, 1,5v, 99924, 2T command rate. I thought about adding 0,05v to the ram and setting command rate at auto but apart from that I'm at a loss.
Temps on full load are around 54-55 CPU and core i'm not 100% but 60-65 tops.
If you have any idea what caused this issue, please help. Thanks in advance!
Regards, Alex
