    Asrock 970 extreme3

    Hey guys! I bought Asrock 970 extreme3 board and fx 8320 cpu... Like 2 days old. Well,all was good,bla,bla,bla,but,problem is,when I try to play any games,I can hear how fans start spinning faster,couse of heating,I believe and when they do,like after 15-20sec my network stops working....I believe it's becouse of heat...I have no idea...can anyone help me? Flashed bios to latest,re-installed windows. Dosen't makes any sence... Any help?

    All best.

    Hey guys! I recently found out,that this mobo has really bad cooling...also same with cpu...and my vga even makes this all worse... I have no clue,what is with this mobo,but I don't recommend it. This is first time,when I have problems with mobo. After new year going to bring mobo and cpu back to store.

      CPU: FX 8320.(stock cooler - CoolerMaster).
      Case - InWin griffin (back 80mm fan,side 220mm).
      GPU - Radeon 7850. ( MSI TwinFroze II).

        But is it still suffering from "really bad cooling" ?
        #1 - Please, when seeking help, enter the make and model of ALL parts that your system is comprised of in your Signature, or at least the model #'s in your System Specs, then "Save' it.
        ____If you are overclocking, underclocking, or undervolting any parts, informing us of this and their values would prove beneficial in helping you.


        #2 - Consider your PSU to be the foundation from which all else is built upon. Anything built upon a weak foundation is poorly built.
