****HELP****
My rig crashed about 4 times playing Far Cry 4 last night. I reset the overclock on the GPU back to factory and carried on trouble free browsing youtube for another hour or so then it crashed agin. My CAM hardware monitor reported a temp spike in both CPU & GPU at the point of it crashing. 86.7 degrees on the CPU & 77 degrees on the GPU
I am now getting this straight after the Gigabyte bios screen. Any ideas? Spec below
GIGABYTE 990FX UD3 R5
AMD 95-90 (BASE CLOCK 4.7ghz)
16GB 1833MHZ HYPER X DDR3 RAM
XFX RX-480 GTR 8GB GPU (OC to 1360mhz)
CORSAIR H105
CORSAIR CX750M
WINDOWS 10 ON KINGSTON 120GB SSD

Can you enter the bios ??

 

[Dustin Coleman]

Maybe CPU is being overheated. Have you took off the cooler and reapplied thermal paste?

Mine won't run if the turbo clock is enabled. It's a know issue but an annoying one. Can't handle FSX with a few add-ons. Shits it's self when I try X Plane 11

Never used a turbo clock lol i never needed it

Temp spikes high enough and fast enough will force a shutdown. I'm interested to know what the voltage was to both at the time of the spike.
