msi 790 fx-gd70 thread

[bmac11]

I am looking for some help getting my cpu stable at 3600. I've read almost this entire thread and spend a good bit of time playing with settings with no luck. I'm starting to think I have a dud.

1.42 bios. NB and HT set to auto. Ram running with the 1333 divider. Right now, the only voltage I have set in the bios is the cpu vdd, cpu-nb vdd, and dram. I've tried the others with no luck. I've pushed 1.45 to the cpu and prime still fails in less than a minute. It seems to run hot too. Even under 1.4v, it can reach 60c (software reading). I resat the heatsink (hr-01 plus) today and its about the same. Any help is appreciated.

edit.. just wondering, do you think it could be my psu? Its 520w, but rather old.. ocz 520 12u
