well the only way to lower the socket temp down, and good practice anyways is to make sure you have a fan that blows air into the socket area as going to liquid cooling reduces air flow over them compared to an air cooler. I actually attached a small fan (from a old intel pent. cpu) to my voltage regulator heat sink and it blows air over them and some of that air goes over the cpu socket area(if i get time ill post a pic of what i mean by this).
also make sure your fan speeds are set correctly because my asus defaulted to running the cpu fan at 100% @ 85c which is not aggressive enough.
also i ignored corsairs recommendation on my h105 and ran my radiator fans to blow the air out of the case because my radiator sits right above the cpu socket area so i didn't want it to actually blow hot air into my case. this lowered my case temp some and seemed to help my temps stay lower (even though it means its using slightly warmer case air to reduce the cpu temp down)
just wondering what did the motherboard show your default voltage for your cpu at? before you started adjusting the freq down?
have you tried running prime95 stress test?
The MOBO automatically wants to run it at 5.1mhz 1.5v cant remember what the multiplier was for that ratio. Also ran my 1866 RAM at 1300mhz with changed timings according to what the RAM is supposed to be timed at. That was optimized default settings in the bios. To make it run decently I had to manually set the multiplier to 21.5 changed the CPU frequency to 200 and RAM at 300 with voltage set at 1.475.
I tried many times to get it to run at base 4.7mhz without any luck. Also tried AI suite auto overclocking tool as well as AMD overdrives auto clocking feature without any working results.
I used AMD Overdrive stress test and failed within 3 mins of runtime. Had a better run using OCCT @ 42mins before getting an error that I still don't know what the error was it gave no description and I have not been able to get help from the website as it has been in maintenance since I installed the program.
With the current settings the system does respond fast and seems to run smoothly playing heavily modded games without any lag or system crashes and I am okay with leaving it as it is but would like to run the base 4.7mhz if possible.
I am not sure if it is possible to fully stabilize the system at this point. I was kinda hopeing someone with the 9590 could share the BIOS settings with me to see what needs to be set to have a semi stable system.
