My FX-8120 keeps jumping around from 1405 MHz, to 3411 Mhz and sometimes I'll see it even jump to 4 GHz and I do not understand why.
In AID64, it shows a 10% OC and I have it set to normal mode in BIOS.
I was running it in Performance mode and it was clocking out at 3888, but thought that might be causing the system problem described below.
The other problem I just sent a letter to Asus about:
My system keeps failing to respond overnight, ever single night while I sleep. I wake up the next morning to a blacked out monitor and a non-responding PC and I am must force a shut down by holding the power button in.
I am not sure what is causing it and would greatly appreciate any help you could provide in finding the cause of this problem.
My system:
Freshly installed Windows 7 64-BIT (w/KB2645594 and KB2646060 hotfixes and lastest 1102 BIOS)
Asus Sabertooth 990FX MoBo
AMD FX-8120 Zambezi 3.1GHz Socket AM3+ 125W
PNY Optima 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) Desktop Memory
AMD Radeon HD7950 3GB video card
WD 640GB HDD
WTH is going on? Do you think I have a bad BIOS or board?
Thanks for any help or advice in advance,
