AMDFX 9370 8 core CPU......

Post by TufenHuden »

Well I put in AMD64 FX 9370 CPU and well have nothing with problems
with BF-3/BF-4.

On BF-4 it just freeze when it get to loading screen.
On BF-3 I'll get into actual game then about 2 secs it freezes.

On BF-2 Project Reality mod it get to screen choose your kit
it will freeze.

BF-2 it will run.

COD-4/MW-3 no problem......

9370 is supposed to run at 4.4 GHZ but it boots at 4.7Ghz-I've downed it the
clocked the speed to 4.3/4.4 GHz......

Tried different Bios still samething.

My specs.
AMD64FX 9370 8 core
Asus sabertooth 990FX R2-Gen3
8-GB-Gskill-Pi-PC3-1600
2-MSI 660-TI Sli
Win-7-Ultimate-64
PC Power&Colling 910w SLI-cert-80 silver

My 6350 6 core ran everything.

Seems to be a memory lock up issue, try running memtest86+, if you are using cooling that is not one of the following, you are probably suffering from overheating.

120mm+ AIO
NH-D14+ air cooling

I'm using a Eco inloop liquid cooling but the 9370 would do
goofy things-it's 220w pwr doesn't help either so I took it out and
put back 6350 in.

Now I've problem I get on all way threw I get to CO-Op just do the
bot maps or online it when you pic place to spawn it won't let me spawn into
the battlefield.

Interesting thread on similar problem with same FX9370 and Sabertooth R2 mobo combo from bb5unlock, on two forums:
Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0 + Amd FX-9370 Freeze and unstable - Overclockers Forums
Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0 + Amd FX-9370 Freeze and unstable

Advice on that thread to strip down your system to 1 stick of RAM and one GPU, ... would be my suggestion.

Which CoolIT SYSTEMS ECO AiO are you using? That 9370 probably needs a 280mm at minimum, it's literally one of the hottest CPUs ever sold to consumers.

Those threads I linked, the ppor guy went through maybe 50 hours of testing, and still wasn't stable...

I got rid of 9370-looking at the 8370-same clock speed
lower tdp-like 120w-but I'm looking at that link though-Thank You.....
