Help with FX 8320 and Asrock GC-GS FX Motherboard OC

[hallosup]

Hey everybody,
I own a AMD FX 8320 and a ASROCK GC GS FX Mobo and wanted to do a stable OC without my speeds dropping to 1,5 GHZ all the time. Can anybody give me advice for it?
I'm using AMD overdrive right now. Thank you guys!

That sounds like C1E/Cool N Quiet is enabled in bios and/or windows performance mode is set to 'balanced' instead of performance mode.

RGone...

That is onnly a 3 phase board that officailly doesn't even support the 8320. I would be very careful overclocking on that. Actually I wouldn't at all. It's likely to die a horrible death taking other components with it most like the CPU.

Only rated for a 95 watt cpu. 8320 is a 125 watt cpu. Overclocked it is considerably more. Get a motherboard that is made for overclocking an 8 core cpu.

What chipset does the Asrock GC-GS FX use? (I'm too lazy to look it up )

Without a good 990 chipset MB and good power (8+2 phase) then just about anything else is only good for stock speeds with any FX chips with 125W TDP.
