Hey guys I've got a gigabyte 970da motherboard with the amd fx 9590 in socket.
I saw on HWMONITOR that even at Max loads Durning Prime95 runs the CPU was only pulling 90 watts.
Still running clean at 4.7Ghz. This board is rated to handle 125 watt CPUs shouldn't I see at least that much draw? I just recently learned that I should have a better board for my 9590 and one is on the way.
But my question is do you think I might have over taxed my board and burned something out? Is HWMONITOR misrepresenting info? Shouldn't I be having more problems underpowering a CPU like this?
