Hello,
I have been an avid Intel user for many years and a few months ago I decided it was time to upgrade my computer but at the time the prices of the Intel i3,5,7's were way out of my reach and I decided on an AMD and found what I thought to be a nice processor, but now I am at my wits ends.
The CPU came with a stock HSF which is what I am using at idle times its nice around 38c but when I start to use the computer either for playing a game or maybe video compression that fan gets extremely loud and the temperature jumps up to around 45-48c.
Now earlier today I have gotten several BSOD's and applications I am using are causing instant reboots. I have felt that AMD is just not for me and have considered going back to Intel, but before I do I want to make sure that maybe their is something I can try and determine what could be causing the crashes in both Windows 7 & Linux, and the insanely loud fan.
RIG Configuration is: ASUS M4A785TD-V EVO, AMD Thuban 1090t x6 @ 3.2ghz (No OC'ing) 8gb DDR 1300 4x2gb G.Skill Ripjaw Series RAM, 1TB WD 7200 Bootable. Also have a RocketRAID PCI-E card installed for SANS drives, (christmas gift)
