Well I did it, just ordered the Asus Sabertooth 990fx r2.0 with the Cooler master 212 evo even got another fan just in case for the push and pull cooling, Have checked and the rest of my equipment will work on the new mobo, will keep posted on performance on the new upgrade build. Finally my...

Hello, I currently have a Asus M5A97 LE 2.0 mobo, using the AMD fx-8320 CPU with Corsair Vengeance 2x4gb memory
using the cooler master N520 CPU heatsink fan system. With the Ultra 750 standard PSU
I have been saving for the Asus Sabertooth 990fx r2.0 mobo and the cooler master 212 evo...
not really looking to overclock to high maybe a bump, but I can see that my temps increase during a load like when I play Crysis 3 for like a hour + the temps hit like 50 to 55c on my CPU, the phenom II with the same heatsink only got to like 35-45c under load with the same game. Also after...
that's the cpu heatsink I am currently using is the N520 by cooler master just was not sure if this would work since it is not designed for the higher end FX series CPUS by AMD It's specs go up to the AM3 8100 that's it
I have just upgraded to the amd fx 8320 cpu Black edition. I had a phenom II BE 965 x4 with a Cooler master N520 heatsink cooler, my question and advice I need is will that cooler master N520 be good enough for cooling my new fx 8230. Also if anyone has any advice on maybe a better preforming...
Have a cooler master N520 on a AMD FX 8320 was wondering if this is going to be enough for this cpu, It was installed on my Phenom II BE 965 3.4Ghz x4 CPU. kept that cpu cool. was just concerned about going from 4 cores to 8 cores and not having enough cooling power for the New 8230 CPU. Will my...
I did OC it once got it stable at 3.8 with no voltage increase, got up to 4.0 and it BSOD on me, the critical error was kernel power 41, which of course meant that the cpu was not getting enough power. I really never messed with overclocking, just something I would try my hand at since all the...

The upgrade is for performance, to upgrade my game play experience. Yes I am happy with the card I have I went from a evga gtx 650 ti 2gb to that 660 FTW 3gb and can tell a big difference. I just want a card that I do not have to worry if its going to be able to handle some of these newer...

so if i was to upgrade going to like a 770 4gb version would be better, what about the 760 4gb version w/acx cooling, which evga has not released yet, they have the standard fan cooling system 4gb version out and it is going for 289.99 on there web site. so would this be a upgrade or just stick...
