Hi guys. I've a amd phenom II 955 (not overclocked) and I've been experiencing some random freezes. First I blamed the drivers, after I tought it might be the psu and even a hard drive although all are brand new. But I realized that this freezes used to happen when the processor had full load even sometimes if it was a brief moment. So I made a test, I went to my bios and I turned off the option that allows the board to turn down the processor's voltage if it was overheatting, then I started battlefield 3 and after checking the temps a windod pop up saying that there was a detected overheating and than the system would turn off in 5 seconds.
What is strange is that core temp says idle temps around 49 to 54 C while amd overdrive tells a different story, around 60 to 65C
What do you think?, could be overheating or just some board utility issue. Thank you
