I red many guides and i think is not i problem of settings in the bios, tried to change the original version that was 0604 to the 1101, but the problem doesn't go away. So i'm here to see if anyone can say what is, or had something like that...

Thanks for everything and sorry for the english, i'm brazilian.
Either your CPU temps are too high or your VRM temps are too high and the board is throttling down the chip. Make sure you are actively cooling the VRM area with a fan if you are setting Load Line Calibration higher than Medium. Your chip will throttle at 93C so that could be an issue as well.
