It passed IBT! It just happened to give out a little too soon  |

IBT AVX is like Furmark for GPU, its not even good program to test out stability, you only break things with it.

No, it's one of the better stability tests. Prime is garbage and doesn't put anything for load on your system. Ibt didn't kill my board, I did by pushing my system too hard for a competition before my water blocks were ordered.

It is now!!! haha. Plus side is I got 5.2GHz stable Calling Gigabyte about it now. Going to play dumb and see if I can get a warranty on it 
@BReezer, it would have happened regardless of the board. I was pushing close to 1.6volts and 5.2ghz and testing with Intel Burn Text AVX......I pushed the poor thing a little too hard. At least I know it's limits now |
Even the AsRock Z77 E4 I had (which is supershit btw) took 1.6V for few months without frying anything before I upgraded to a real board.
Your mobo had to have been faulty or just crappy. |
I'm guessing you don't read or really know what you're talking about. AMD 8350 is a 125watt cpu, thus pushing it to 1.583-1.6volts while running 5.2 ghz uses A LOT of power and heats the VRM's up like crazy. Your 1.6volts on your intel is going to pull in less power since most of them are under 90watt. |

5.2Ghz?
Sweet.
I got mine to 4.5 but I don't dare push it any further on air so I'll just stay there for a while.

My god..... you really are brain dead...... it explains everything
When did I blame the hardware?

I hate you so much. Every time I buy a new game something happens! Tomb Raider, happen to be selling my old system to buy the 8350...well...it sold and the 965 I had went with it, system down for 3 days..couldn't play Tomb Raider
Buy Bioshock, got ambitious and pushed my system too hard. System has been down for a week v_v
I'm not buying games anymore.

If I wanted to do extreme clocks like that I would have prolly bought something at 200€+ mark but I guess the UD5 is still an upgrade from UD3.

Why are you even still posting here retard. Know what is different about those more expensive Asus boards? The idiots that buy into marketing. They're all 8+2 phases.

Lol, that's some shit luck man. Just stay out of the bioshock thread then, lots of spoilery goodness.

The difference is better quality Mosfets...
A pretty big difference IMO for anyone who even thinks of overclocking.
Maybe do your research first before buying Gigabyte crap?

Your stupidity is on a whole new level. You're done talking to me retard. Come back when your head isn't up your ass and have something useful to say other than spewing your worthless shit. |

Why are you talking like that? I'm merely offering advice if you don't wanna break anymore stuff going for silly overclocks.
| Quote: | | Each phase can be supplied with 50A of steady current to the CPU, combining for 400A total. That sounds like quite a bit, but compare it to the Crosshair V Formula, which also has an 8+2 phase VRM but with higher spec’d FETs, and you’ll see another reason the 990FXA-UD3 is more affordable. The Crosshair V Formula has 3 FETs per phase, which can supply over 2000 amps to the CPU. This is obviously overkill, as under normal loads (125W @ 1.425v) the FX 8150 draws around 88A. However if you are brute-forcing an overclock while trying to break records, it is not uncommon for this CPU to draw 350-450W at 1.5v and up, |
Quite the difference there between quality and crap. One of the reasons I ditched the Z77 E4 myself because of shitty MOSFETs obviously not meant for overclocking.
