I just picked up a FX8120 and a Crosshair V.
The short of the problem is that it starts at high PPD then it drops to 2K over 30mins.
My first folding on it was stock clocks windows7 64. This is where the problem I am having started to show it's self. The max PPD it was doing was 14k then it dropped to 2K over 30mins. I figured it had something to do with the old windows install I was running it on, I shrugged it off and did a clean wipe and install of Ubuntu 10. Same problem with Ubuntu. So now I think it has to be a bios setting. So now I'm back to windows 7 (fresh install) and have been reading forums and messing with the bios trying to fix my problem. After a weekend of playing with it I'm still no closer to fixing it.
can anyone give me some ideas?
