I just got my FX 8350 this morning, installed without a hitch. I booted and noticed clock was set by default to 3.8ghz so I rebooted and up the multiplier just to the standard 4.0ghz. BSOD the second I go to the Windows screen, I went back to bios and downed my RAM from 1600mhz to 1333mhz, still BSOD. I then went back to the 3.8ghz and I am fine. I'm thinking my motherboard won't support this cpu higher than 3.8ghz.. I'm realllllly hoping that isn't the case because I was told that as long as its AM3+ (Which my board is) Than I'm good. I have seen people running these cpus in older boards than mine.. what is the problem here? My RAM?
