The AMD Vishera Owners Klub - the new FX CPUs on old AM3+ mobos!

[tekman]

Ohh great, thanks. Now I have to find a compatible CPU to use with the default BIOS before upgrading, double CPU purchase, ouch. . .

Hmm u may not need to double purchase if can get someone to lend u chip to flash :X

 

[tekman]

I got bitten by the bug ... Just bought my FX-8350 from SLS at a $2XX =D

 

[morgankell]

Welcome to the club. hmm... 2xx? Interesting

Thanks for the welcome

Yea .... just a little bit more expensive compared to buying from PCHome Global

Nice, welcome to the Klub!

Pls post some screenshots/photos too.

Either find an accommodating shop at SLS to buy the chip and ask them to help flash your mobo or bring mobo back to the local distro to do it.

I do not know how to insert image, but here are the stats.

Vcore 1.284V
+3.3V 3.264V
+5V 4.992V
+12V 12.046V
+VDDA 2.508V
CPU Temp 59C
MB Temp 46C
CPU Fan 5973rpm
Chassis Fan 1 1229rpm
Chassis Fan 2 1198rpm

Please advise if its normal as the utility keep prompting me abnormal temperature when it hit 65C. Should i raise the limit of the alert?

Thanks.

Can't comment since no mention of your rig components at all...

Running everything at stock still... did FF14 bench last night and running prime now for stability testing.

Pretty high temps for a stock run... using push pull fans for the H60 yet?



And since Bioshock Infinite is another AGE game ie. AMD Gaming Evolved...

No not yet will go get a 2nd fan today and do it :x

What would be the ideal temps for full load ?

Thanks for the link

My FX8320 oc to 4.4ghz @ 1.375v with loaded temp @ 68ºC.
Using thermaltake water 2.0 extreme.
Just for your reference.

Thanks for the info

Honestly for vishera try to aim for less than 62 celsius core temp.
My fx 8320 at fx 8350 speed with gaia push pull runs around 50 depending on ambient room temp... a good thermal compound helps too.

 

[bemylove]

Try use Hwinfo64 to read your temps.
Hwmonitor dont think have been updated to support PD.

2 x 990FXA-UD3 mobos down... 8 core CPU pushing, be more careful

These hot and hungry 8 cores monsters are really stressing motherboard makers to delivering truly quality motherboards, leaving no rooms for them to slack in any little details.

 

[morgankell]

990FXA-UD3 is a well recommended board... more like the overclocking chap was using water cooling and neglected to cool the vrms with a spot fan. Even tower fans dont cool the vrms much and there is only so much passive heat dissipation from vrm heatsinks.

AMD FX-8350 build with lots of TLC thrown in.

How i wish the agent in sg will bring in those custom liquid cooling system man..

 

[MacClipper]

btw, for those concerned with power costs

Maybe the chip fairies have been working overtime

Very interesting info about the loading capabilities of different synthetic stress tests from xs
8350 Power Consumption - Page 2

"Hotdog" is part of AMD ThermNow software, which is under NDA.
Besides there is no real use for such a program, as the resulting stress does not correlate by any means with the stress levels generated by the real world applications:

DCR Peak Power by application (during 10 minutes):
100% - Hotdog 15h V0.02
