Mine idles in 40s and goes into 50s loaded. Not worried.

Aight so i've had my 8350 for a while and i want to push it but not really sure how to move forward. Currently running at 4.6Ghz at stock voltage (1.32v) Cooler is a noctua NH-D15. I've already turned off and tweaked the standard settings, cpu spread spectrum and such. My motherboard is a Sabertooth 990fx R2.0

View attachment 79136

the next place to go to now is upping the FSB until it becomes unstable at stock voltage and then up the voltage until it's stable and finding the sweet spot between FSB/Voltage/temps

No sense in bumping the fsb as that screws with ram speed. Adjust the multiplier only. 4.6 should be easy with stock voltage

How did you manage to get your 8350 to 5.1Ghz on air? What voltage are you at? My NH-D15 is getting into the 50-55C range at 1.32v.

Chip lottery, I only bought this chip in 2014 at a Microcenter. My Volts are at 1.48. Look at my specs. 4.5-4.7 was easy to obtain, 4.8-4.9 was easy too. 5.0-5.1GHz was tough. You should get 4.5-4.7 Easy.

From the screenshot i sent earlier, i get 4.6Ghz on stock voltage. What are your temps like? I see you are also using an air cooler.

Just wondering. Who cares abou 1 - 2 cores clocked high... anyway dont beat old horse with bat

xvi · Sep 23, 2016

It's been a while, but I'm pretty sure I hit about 4.4-4.6 near stock volts and then it took a TON of volts to get 4.8.

The 8350 has been retired until I have more time to tinker.

Edit: I think I lost the silicon lottery on that chip though.
Edit 2: If I revive it, think my board would survive if I put a couple extra volts on it and fried the chip? (Not intentionally frying the chip, of course, but..)

Deleted member 167296 · Sep 24, 2016

Managed to reach 4.8Ghz by adding only 0.4v. After that though the voltage required to reach 5Ghz just seems endless.

eidairaman1 · Sep 24, 2016

1.48-1.5 is what its running Gaming is in the 50s. http://www.scythe-eu.com/fileadmin/images/CPU-Cooler/Ashura/Double-fan-top.jpg thats my cooler. it doesnt block any ramslots even with the fans.

Mine is OC across all 8 cores at 5.1GHz, care to not be a noob?

@xvi what board do you have?

Daaamn 5.1 Ghz on all cores and still weaker than intel whos 4Ghz not to talk with oc. Anyway its nice if oc is succesful, but do you need it so much?

Deleted member 167296 · Sep 25, 2016

Just hit 5Ghz (5.008Ghz) on 1.42v completely stable after running IBT. I haven't tried lowering the voltage any further because I had no time but I will try later. I will post a cpu-z picture aswell.

Meaning what ... that magical faeries didn't change buldozer ipc over night with their faerie dust? In case you are wondering, they didn't.

For happiness sake what you want should be what you need

Check the vrm cooling, phases should be like 8+2, latest bios as well.

The chips are ok with 1.48-1.50 Vcore.

Subduck- run Unigen valley and heaven benchmarks, details set to max for stability testing.

I think I was up around 1.55v daily with a couple minutes of 1.65v to see if I could get 5GHz (turns out the answer is no). This was on custom water with a 3x120x40-ish mm radiator, only CPU in the loop. Temps were above 60c under load. It held fine, but I certainly wasn't comfortable with it.
If I recall correctly, VRM temps were pretty decent. Heatsinks weren't too hot either. At least they weren't very hot compared to the ASRock X79 Extreme4-M I've got. Heatsinks are on fire on that thing. :ohwell:

Edit: I kind of want to do a 5GHz or bust run, but I'd like to not fry the mobo. Not too worried about losing the CPU.

You could probably do 5.2-5.3 benching on water. Just don't stress the CPU too much(p95) and it won't hurt the board. I've kicked these CPUs around hard for a while.

eidairaman1 · Sep 30, 2016

I'd probably mention I did put llc back on. Also Add a fan to vrms if possible

Hmm. Nice.
Starting to remember some things about my FX-8350. I remember the back of the socket getting very hot. I put a fan blowing at the socket and got something like 5c drops on CPU temps, if I recall correctly. I think VRMs were pretty fine though.

Edit: I should be moving soon. New place has a room that would work well as a hobby/computer room. Hopefully, I'll have more room to set things up and tinker.

What is "llc", and would it be preferable to put a fan on the VRMs or behind the socket. (I heard that helps temps)

LLC is load line calibration. You'll find it in the Digi+ section of your Sabo's BIOS. LLC helps hold an even voltage. Set your to CPU=ultra and NB=high. That's what I always used.
As for the fan, I found the one on the back of the mobo over the socket helped the most.
