that indicate that the CPU is slag, but the thing of it is, is that I'm not getting any errors, or BSOD's even when the temps go past 90deg.C. The more I play around with it, the more I'm coming to the conclusion that the sensor on the chip is fubar. with default core volt settings (1.28v.). You made absolutely no contribution to this thread at all and your comments do not help the OP one bit.I'm having the same problem with my 8150, runaway temps.

They don't make a habit of suggesting how to burn up your CPU and they certainly don't need you to tell them how to OC their CPUs. You should learn to read more and post less because you continue to confuse people looking for accurate technical information with your meritless comments.ДЄMD probably has a pretty damn good idea what their products can and can't do and what is safe. That guide was written by overclockers for noobs.Д®ducating the educators sure is fun isn't it.just because you read something on the internet doesn't make it true nor make the reader an expert.just because someone may assume certain things happen by some made-up logic doesn't mean its true either.As with your past comments, you are once again incorrect. Those are not engineering specification, or even official 'safe limits' really. People with experience under many different conditions. Please try 2v on 20 CPUs running phase/dice/cascade even and come back to me on how many live more than 20 seconds.ДЇurthermore what 'AMD feels' in that guide are from people exactly like The Stilt, Macci, chew*, others like myself. It's worth noting that some mobo VRM circuits can't handle an OC'd/Over-volted FX 8-core processor well under stress testing and if it hits the over-temp safety it will drop the CPU voltage and frequency which can cause P95 errors IME, even though it should not. In addition to the disabled items already set in the BIOS, start with 4.1 GHz. There are a variety of OC'ing guides and there is good info. I haven't seen any other CPU that becomes unstable with too much Vcore but the FX processors do in my limited experience with them. IME too much Vcore is as bad as too little Vcore on the FX processors. These recommendations have nothing to do with what the CPU or BIOS will allow. The chart at the end of the AMD OC'ing guide indicates what AMD feels is possible and acceptable based on different cooling options as shown in the chart. In the 'Extreme' category they list up to 2.0V assuming water or better cooling. They even listed it in the chart with 1.5V Vcore being in the 'Air-Cooling' category. VID = Voltage Identifier.Actually AMD has stated that you can use up to 1.5V on the FX processors if you desire, assuming proper cooling. It means the can be adjusted up to 1.55V with VID configuration. That has nothing to do with the voltage being 'safe'. I know every chip and motherboard are different, but these results strike me as odd considering the number of forum threads I've found where people are achieving 4.5+ with substantially lower VCore, and even those with air-cooled systems are achieving stable OCs past 4.1GHz.ДЄm I missing an essential piece of the puzzle, or did I just get some bum hardware? The most stable OC I've been able to achieve is 4.1GHz 1.50 VCore, and even that doesn't pass long-term Prime95 tests it has been stable for daily usage, to include video editing/encoding and gaming. The really perplexing part to me is that I can't even get to a stable 4.3GHz with a VCore of 1.55, the maximum recommended by AMD for a water-cooled system. Temperatures have been fine during the tests, not peaking above 42C in HWMonitor. I continued to get hard freezes, BSOD 101s and worker errors (rounding and illegal sumout). After trying a few combinations of lowering the multiplier and raising the VCore, I began running initial stability tests using Prime95 (blend and small FFT).

The first problem appeared just beyond the Windows login, where I experienced a hard-freeze or BSOD 101. My intent was to get a ballpark estimate for a bootable OC as a starting point, per this thread. RAM is booting 1333MHz and has passed extensive Memtest86 trials (12+ hours without error).ДЄs I started in on overclocking my 8150, I initially set my multiplier to 22.5 for 4.5GHz and the VCore to 1.45. C1E, C6, K8, AMD APM and TurboBoost are disabled. So, please bear with me if I sound like a complete newbie.Д¬ooling: Custom water, 360mm + 120mm (dual GPU between the proc and the 120) My overclocking experience is not extensive, and most of that is with Intel processors.
