EuroFight Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 (edited) One of the few things that I haven't replaced is the AMD processor...does anyone think the memory controllers or something could have gone wrong in the processor?

SpikeSoprano Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 That is possible, too bad you couldn't try it in another mb. Also I guess you did manually reset the cmos after a bios flash, this would also cause issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuroFight Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 Yeah I don't know anyone else with a socket AM3+ board so I can't really do that unfortunately - it had crossed my mind, however Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EuroFight Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 Hmmm I'll try doing a manual reset, although I doubt it is the issue (I don't know the jumpers so I'll just resort to taking the battery out for a couple of minutes) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think testing on any other motherboard is needed as the the board that Euro currently using is a new board. Now talking about your suspension, processor could be bad, but I would say the word could. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuroFight Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 I'm kinda reluctant about returning another component (processor) unless I'm sure it's the issue after buying a new graphics card twice, power supply, extra fans and returned a motherboard that was perfectly fine, virtually none of the original stuff is left Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes his mb is new but it's his cpu he's not sure of, and if it did the same problem on another mb he will know the cpu is faulty.

EuroFight Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 Okay, cleared CMOS after BIOS update and disabled CPU Fan Control so hopefully my chip can remain cooler...now for the test... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you are 100% sure about that, it would be foolish to do a RMA of CPU. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
