Hello, i am doing an upgrade for a buddy where he purchased an AMD FX 9590 which was confirmed to be working and a brand new Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 motherboard. After installing Windows 10 Pro 64-bit and the newest drivers plus a BIOS update to the most recent 'R3'. The System still freezes at random times and requires a forced shut down by pressing the power button.

Here is the exact parts list:
AMD Fx 9590
Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3
Kingston HyperX 8GB 1600
Samsung EVO 120SSD (boot)
WD Black 1tb HDD
Corsair 600W PSU
MSI GTX 1060 6GB

 
Solution
You really need to under volt and lower the clock speed of the processor that 220 Watt power draw is killer, or just sell it and buy a 8350 used their cheap now.
