Whelp I have nothing else better to do, I'm going to try to find the highest performance from my die.
AMD is all about the numbers... Problem is their numbers aren't the ones that sell.

Highest Stables (Cores high to low, then target speed high to low)
__Windows 8.1
____8 Cores, 4541MHz Target, 5019MHz Turbo with 1912 OC RAM [1600]
____8 Cores, 47xxMHz Target with 1910 OC RAM [1600]
____6 Cores, 5052MHz Target with 1880 OC RAM [1600]
______Built from a 4 Core, 5052MHz Taget with 1880 OC RAM. [1600]
__Windows 7
____(may not update, fixed Voltage problem)
__Ubuntu 14.04
____(waiting for a chance to check Ubuntu's OC threshold, and if it's higher than windows)
Sudo Stables (Cores high to low, then target high to low)
_these are builds that I find they will boot but do not sustain. BSODs are common.
__Windows 8.1]
____8 Cores, 4998MHz Target with 1904 OC RAM [1600]
__Windows 7
____1 Core, 52xxMHz Taget, unknown RAM [1333]
FX-9370 | ASUS M5A97 R2.0 | ASUS DirectCU 270X 2GB | Kingston 2x4GB 1600 DDR3 | Antec 620w High Current Gamer
Closed! After a weekend (May23rd-25th) of loosing the ability to even boot the system at or above 5GHz, I decided to go for better a better CPU thermal solution of 3.5GHz. I don't work with compressed images or files, almost exclusively uncompressed in both pre-, production and post- when working with images. Only copies to be sent out are exported to PNG and transferred; most work is left in uncompressed PS-D/B files. The RAM was overclocked to 2000MHz target so I can work faster by RAM and rely on Photoshop's GPU rendering for images with my 270X. The Hypertransfer was also affected to test the enhancements of the full duplex architecture, and sue all of the RAM's potential. I really didn't have a reason to change the CPU/NB speeds, but I did and it worked.
