AMD FX8320 throttles well at good temperatures on water.
AMD FX8320 throttles well at good temperatures on water.
Tried it. Won't proceed past the Windows loading screen. I switched LLC back to Extreme, reduced BIOS voltage to 1.35v and switched CPU to 4.0Ghz...we'll see. I'm not sure what's going on. It dropped to 1.9Ghz just before lowering the CPU speed.
You're misunderstanding. You should increase your voltage. Around 1.4v might be better, and stick to medium LLC settings.

I gave it a shot. It won’t proceed past the Windows loading screen. I switched LLC back to Extreme, reduced BIOS voltage to 1.35v and switched CPU to 4.0Ghz... we’ll see. I’m not sure what’s going on. It dropped to 1.9Ghz just before I lowered the CPU to 4.0Ghz.
You’re misunderstanding. You should increase your voltage—maybe to 1.4v—and stick with medium LLC settings.
Before we keep miscommunicating, let me note my current LLC configurations (Extreme, Auto, Normal, Standard, Low). In all other modes except Extreme, stability seemed inconsistent.
TheDecentGatsby tried the changes but encountered issues. The system didn't respond past the loading screen. After adjusting the BIOS voltage to 1.35v and setting the CPU to 4.0Ghz, the performance dropped to 1.9Ghz when the CPU was reduced. The person believes the problem lies in raising the voltage, suggesting around 1.4v with medium LLC settings. They also noted that other non-Extreme modes were unstable, likely due to the Extreme setting pushing voltage beyond what the BIOS supports.
