So lately i've been getting a lot of crashes while playing games,so i started testing all the components,when i got to the CPU with prime95,only after 1 minute of running the "worker 6" stopped with an error and the PC crashed,what do you guys think might be the problem?
My setup:
AMD FX-8350 4.0ghz(not overclocked)
Asus GTX 770 OC
Asus m5a99fx pro r2.0(motherboard)
Corsair CX-750M
Zalma Z11 Case
Thermaltake NIC F4(CPU cooler)
G.Skill Ripjaws X DDR3 1600 2x4GB
Temperature right before the crash happened were 64C Core and 55 Package,i was keeping an eye on HWMonitor,but i don't have a screenshot as the PC crashed.

I thought of that myself too,but as i just changed the cooler and thermal paste 3 days ago,don't think this is the problem,even if the cooler is the problem i don't have the means to get a new one right now as i just bought this one

Ok then you may need to hand set the voltage to reduce the heat. AMD tend to set it high to cover the silicon lottery. Try getting a bit lower than stock say 1.30~1.375v as turbo may use as much as 1.425v. Also make sure you have the latest motherboard bios verison 2501.

I do have the latest BIOS,and the CPU under full load is running on 1.296V,that is the voltage that CPU-Z showed while running prime95,it crashed at 55C core now,which is under max temp.
