Going to sound a little Noobish, so I apologise in advance.
I have a FX8300 which I was running on an ASUS M5A78L-m mobo using a cooler master tx3 cooler which I manually OC'd to 4.0ghz which was incredibly stable with no voltage changes.
I was gifted a brand new Gigabyte GA-990X-Gaming SLI-CF board and I noticed it seemed to have a sort of smart overclock where, on GPU-Z, I noticed that the frequency of my CPU would fluctuate between 1.7 and 4.2 as needed. but with another monitoring software I also noticed that whilst gaming the frequency never exceeded 3.6 no matter what strain was put on the CPU.
I have tried a manual OC, AMD overdrive and Gigabyte easytune but any attempt to take auto overclock off this MOBO results in having to go back to default settings and in some cases a whea uncorrectable error.
Is there something I'm missing all I want is to take this CPU to it's rated turbo speed while I save for a new Ryzen system but I just can't see how.
