Warning: This power draw of this CPU is almost twice that of the average CPU. Due to this, AMD recommends using at minimum a 1000W power supply. For cooling, AMD recommends using either either closed loop liquid cooling or full system liquid cooling.

No I haven't checked into this I read somewhere else just now that many people who has this problem disabed C1 and C6 states and enabled wise scholar n quiet and it went away so I'm going to test this.

NO no no no on a 1000 watt power supply. I have a AMD 9590FX on a AsRock 990FX Extreme 9, 10 hard drives, 10 cases fans, 1 Nvidia Gtx 750gi, 1 Nvidia Gtx 650, 1 Creative soundblaster Fatalty pci sound card, 1 blueray burner, 1 dvd burner, and one pci express sata controller card off of a Antec 650trio power supply. All of this running off of a 650 watt power supply with no lock ups, blue screens, no freezing. My cpu cooler is a Corsair H100i. He is trying to air cool that processor which that cooler that he is using will not keep it cool correctly Plus he has to use one of those Motherboards that you have listed.

How will it not keep it cool when it isnt going over 60 degrees when im gaming? it has to reach like 90 degrees to shut off plus I'm probably sure the freezes are from instability I saw people with my problem with liquid cooling + most said disabling c1e and c6 states fixed the issue so I've done that and now its time to see the results :D I will post back later

Dude I have the same processor, but I have my turbo core and c6 states enable and I burst over 5.375 Ghz on the Asrock 990FX Extreme. Temps get no higher than 115F. I still wouldn't run that cpu on air cooling. Yes I do agree not enabling c1e state.

Yeah well my case is kinda old so I cant use liquid cooling but I will when I get my new case the cpu is fine on air cooling if you're running at stock speeds

Ok thats understandable. When I started thinking about building my rig, I did a lot of research online before I built it. I knew I was going with AMD so I wanted the fastest CPU from them. Every article I read on the AMD 9590 FX, all said it was a hot chip that needs lots of cooling. I thought about air cooling then the case was my next worry. I chose the Corsair Vengeance C70 case that is very roomy and you can add a lot of case fans.
