If you guys would take notice to TCase temps.... The higher binned chip requires a lower temp.
FX-8370E
tCTLMax = 70
tCaseMax = 70.5°C
THERMTRIP on tCTL scale = 85
FX-8370
tCTLMax = 70
tCaseMax = 61.1°C
THERMTRIP on tCTL scale = 85
FX-9590
tCTLMax = 70
tCaseMax = 57.0°C
THERMTRIP on tCTL scale = 85
Observe the TCase on that FX-9590 clocked 4.7ghz with 5.0ghz turbo!! And people wonder why stability issues occur so quickly once reaching these type of clock speeds without adequate cooling.
In example, OP has running at most 4.4ghz with about 1.5000v. In this case with low clocks (ignoring voltage used) he may get away with TCase temps well into the 70c mark.
However as you overclock your processors, the goal is always to run a cooler temp with a higher clock speed.
Thermtrip on FX is still 85c. Core Temps displays TJMax of 90c. PC will shut down between 85-90c core temps and there is no work around.
Case in point..... Don't try running 4.8ghz at 80c. It's not even advised to run TCase anywhere near that number. This type of information should be at the Original post for factual purposes and disregard the statement.... "Look how FX is tougher than you think" while running such a low overclock with way too much voltage.
I'm not sure how you are going to get the data you are looking for...
Well start here perhaps?

• VID_VDD. The VID_VDD voltage is the VID-requested VDD supply level. Refer to the BIOS and

plenty of information out there.
