I blew up a CPU while benchmarking... FAIL 

Paul is right, it's only fair 😂

That's a beautiful idea >:)

Paul's Hardware dang it, Paul beat me to it! Now, I would love to see that video!

Eggcellent idea...

we need a burial, some of us had emotional attachment to that processor. im taking tomorrow off on account of death in the family... R.I.P. never forget.

Not everyone uploads their failures. Kudos to jay for being honest and earned much more respect from all us fans...

Jake Will Game DAMN RIGHT😂 but you've got to admire him uploading his mistake(s)

Jake Will Game i just recently had the same issue with my frienfs pc. we tested with 3 psus and all the same issue. after about 5 hours of trying to boot we built everything back in and we tried again. it did not work. we wanted to play cs together and we was getting mad already and than hit his pc a couple of times and than it booted. idk how but it did.

I agree I just wish this moment was streamed live.

The Big Boy german jokes ._.

Feels like either a Surgeon Simulator moment or Amateur Surgeon moment when you say it like that.

Was it an assassination/murder?

could have been worse

Task failed successfully

it would be pretty dramatic if it was your cpu that died ;)

While an actual explosion would be tough to achieve, I did once see a tech support forum post from someone who managed to get smoke and flames from a processor... doubly impressive since it was a 1 GHz ARM Cortex-A8 based SoC.

Ages ago there was a video of someone doing something like "This is what happens if you pull the heatsink off an AMD Thunderbird" and it literally exploded from the socket. Sadly it was 100% staged.

I wanna see that video :DD

I remember that lol

9:25 proves you should definitely watch before commenting, or you make yourself look more stupid than I do when I blow up CPUs

Clearly never watched the whole video before commenting the video lol.

Dan Esp your esp must have warned you first to be able to type at all 😅

Dan Esp odd, it shouldn't have had time to post the comment

Better if you said 'My voltages are also going too high'

How you knew the CPU was going to blow up when you started typing? And how did you send it if it blew, did your PC send comments youre typing when it turns off???

Nice! No, I had the 212 Evo air cooler. To do it on stock cooling with that low a temp is amazing

Silent Prototype Was it the e? I know he told us in the build video, but I couldn't remember if it was the 8320 or 8320e

slipknotboy555 it was the 8320E, My A6 3650 is crying right now for its fallen comrade

Silent Prototype Oh, OK, haha. That makes sense, and makes the clocks Jay got more impressive

i feel like his basic understanding of how a power supply works and how a motherboard delivers power to the components is flawed. a massive jolt every time a computer turns on doesnt make sense with linear and buck/boost regulators that are typically used in computers. there was, indeed, probably some juice stored in the caps that when combined with the excessive voltage parameters sent the cpu over the edge of the power it could accept. although if the mobo was smart enough there were probably some feedback resistors measuring the final voltage to the processor and adjusting the output of the regulators; so it could have just been one of those mysteries where the cpu just gave out much like a hard drive that was working and stopped when you turn the system off and then back on.

I have the same board which gives 1.5v, 1.55+v when in extreme llc mode.. which makes this llc mode pretty much unusable with this board..

IronOreGaming I'm getting the 8350 and a gtx 1050 for my first pc build and really want to get into streaming i hope it works well

IT Developer i forgot to mention im getting 16 gigs of ram and the mobo has a max of 1600mhz

IT Developer I heard of that board. I'll look into it and if I can get it for a good price I'll probably get it. thanks!

Yes, the AMD FX series are still outstanding CPU's. Specifically the 8320/50/70 (and above) if tuned / overclocked correctly, are as fast as an Intel i7-4790K clock for clock, despite what the so called "experts" claim. So they're budget in price, but NOT in performance. The only caveat is that overclocking the FX series correctly requires a motherboard that can run very fast FSB (Front Side Bus) speed and fast RAM (the only one that I have personal experience with that I know can do both is the ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z). Just overclocking the CPU does not give very good results on AMD FX CPU's (no matter how high you overclock). Neither does just using fast RAM alone, or even using fast RAM with a high CPU overclock. *The only overclocking method that really works is cranking the FSB speed as high as your motherboard will allow it to run stable (250MHz - 265MHz seems to be the sweet spot for best speed / stability range), combined with very fast RAM.* It's that combination alone that solves the only weakness in the FX CPU, which is the internal memory architecture / controller design (which is what causes it to have poor single threaded performance even though it's multi-tasking performance is excellent). Overclocking with this method is the only way to dramatically increase the single threaded performance and overall performance. BTW, when you overclock using this method you cannot run the CPU at anywhere near as high of an overclock as you would when you use the CPU overclock method alone. See next paragraph for an example. I run my FX-8350 at 4.3GHz (4290 MHz to be exact...260 x 16.5), 260MHz FSB, DDR3 2340 MHz RAM (2400 MHz RAM turned down since I run 32GB) and it scores 2.01 on Cinebench 11.5 single threaded, and 9.49 multi-threaded. That is literally almost twice the single threaded performance of a stock FX-8350. An i7-4790K at stock 4.4GHz turbo speed, scores 2.05 and 9.66. That is identical performance since the i7 is actually running at a slightly faster CPU speed. And the FX-8350 is far better at real world multi-tasking. Just a note: I'm an Applied Scientist / Design Engineer and I use this computer as a Design and Engineering Workstation. It runs extremely complex, compute intensive engineering analysis software programs like FEA (Finite Element Analysis) and CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) in the background while I continue to use Design and Rendering software at the same time (while listening to music and having multiple browser tabs open) No i7 less than a 6/12 core can do that kind of multi-tasking. Hope this is helpful.

If you're streaming at a moderate resolution (720p) then it should do just fine. GTX 1050 is a little on the weaker side, but still a solid budget card. If you can afford it, I'd recommend at least going for the 1050 Ti, or better still, the RX 470 has one of the best performance-to-price ratios for 1080p gaming on the market today.

Armin J. what?

I think Salazar was using module cables on his power supply that weren't meant for that unit and were mis-wired.

Everything was fitted correctly, the issue came from installing an LED kit improperly. He had hooked up the NZXT Hue+ and was using the wrong Molex connector for his PSU and didn't realize it.

Salazar is a Portuguese dictator

Thats how linear regulators work. They overshoot as manny control cricuits do. Look just google for datashheets, sometimes you find section with a graph that shos the reaction to a sudden rise in input voltage.

Tech Syndicate actually half or below will blow a CPU

Then you clearly didn't push them hard enough^^ my track record at the moment is 1 8350 (I stepped on it), 3 6700Ks (one @ 6,5 under LN2, one while delidding (I wanted to try out the razorblade technique) and one just died for no apparent reason @1,5V, 5,1GHz under Water) , 2 2600K (one because the board sent 12V straight to the CPU and one because of condensation) and of course tons of older chips^^

Oh I've killed chips before.. Just never run into this weird scenario where it would work while booted then fail because of a surge on the reboot process :P

Bruh, xDdd my shit just said unsupported mode any higher, plus the power block on mine seems beefy xD hopefully it dont blow cause its samsung 😂😂

Trum p M8 call the bomb squad😂😂😂

Andre Daoust oh shit 😂😂, na but fr doe the difference between 4k and 1440p is like 0 so i wana get that rog 144hz 1440p but its so 💲💲💲💲💲💲

Trum p loll ya im tryin to save for a 1060 first then imma get a widescreen. #brokebitch😂 tbh man the ROG shit is suppper cool and good, but its super overpriced. bet u can find one that 3/4 of the price with a regular model. although.... their rog shit is sick😂😂😂 seriously want some

Pilot KaZZ The whole reason I clicked on the vid was to see the charred cpu

It didn't literally blow up. It's just a boring CPU that looks like new.

blame deepcool.

Jay im waiting for u to complete the build with the FX8350 in a board with good vrm's and over clock and compare it u failed on the last one.Cmon dude we want it.I wanna see what my 2012 proceessor can do in 2017.

+Tech Wiz Master Dude +1!!

+GamingLife I specifically said it spiked to well over 1.6

Yeah i'm sorry i noticed, but it's weird if i put 1.5v on ultra LLC it barely gives +.05 extra. Seems to differ from board to board ? (990fx). Pretty good temps tho on 1.6 volts lol, i cant push it past 1.55 on aio loop xD

He added percentages for V-droop, when it booted on, those exchanges slapped onto it all at once. No warm up, a kick to the CPU's nuts as it were.

Silicon lottery ,just it. I have my 8320 : 4.9 @ 1.43V stable max I've pushed 'cause my cooling system does not handle anything above that. And can you remember your OC system config? Because from your story what I've heard something really was wrong with those Vcore flactuations

I agree. I've had an A8-6500 at around 1.5v and it could go up to 90c under load (all using auto settings) and it still runs perfectly about 2 years later. The mobo or CPU must have been defective from the start.

that is still really good not to old

3 gens old to be precise :p

Nikolaas Brems Tbh, it's performance doesn't really vary much from the 6600k/7600k. I personally ran my 4670k up until earlier this year, I upgraded to the 6600k and noticed only a very minute difference in overall FPS. I will however admit that the newer platform, DDR4 support and Thunderbolt etc are really nice to have available.

Yeah man 4670k master race lol . I have not even OC'ed mine yet and it still runs solid. With a good OC at 4,4 - 4,5 i feel that i can skip atleast 1 or 2 more gens easely .

Raldi Haxhia Tbh, I would upgrade it to the new Zen CPU's or wait for Intel's next architecture. The lack of features and support is what turned me to Skylake. Personally, if you weren't planning on over clocking and are interested in Skylake, I'd purchase the i5 6500. I upgraded my girlfriend from a 4670k to a 6500 and it performs better within games, is more efficient and allows for the use of newer hardware (I.e. DDR4, Thunderbolt and etc). She didn't overclock it so the "K" series 4670k was a waste for her.

SteelCity1981 pretty sure coffee lake will just be another optimization phase

nope new arch.

the 7350 is overly priced anyway lets be honest

is it coffee lake .? i heard it will be canon lake..!!!🤔

+thereddog223 not to mention that you need a $150 mobo to actually OC it...

2011unpredictable Jesus, that bottleneck is holding you back

I have the same 8320e in a 970a carbon from MSI and an RX480 GTR, stable 4.3, but not enough power from my RM550x to keep up... otherwise I think I could get somewhere around 4.6 too, I only have 1.38 volts on the CPU... Our transistors go to the fallen comrade....

John Paul, have you by any chance imagined that he might be in the middle of an upgrade cycle? Have you imagined that he could have bought an weaker graphics card with that CPU, than got a used 980Ti that effectively was an improvement and in the future the CPU upgrade is unlocking the GPU? ;)

jpfidalgo7 no I didn't :). I hope he upgrades soon. When I was in the middle of my upgrade cycle I was in a similar situation with an FX 8350 and a GTX 1080 and those brief two weeks before I bought a new mother board and an 4790k were some of the most disappointing weeks when I saw the huge performance gain from the 4790k. Unless Zen rocks the world, I'm sticking with Intel and I recommend anyone with a high end GPU to do so themselves

botteneck? I did experience light bottleneck with g1 gtx 970 with out overclocking the gpu playing black ops 3...that's the reason I got g1 gtx 980ti set for gaming ...i haven't even try to overclock like jay yet, thru bios . and yes I did purchased a used g1 gtx 980ti ...why buy a new card for research ...by the way ...I am not a pro. or have a lot of knowledge about pc building..I love to build pcs! and I am still learning a lot watching jay videos ! I really appreciate all that help and knowledge that you give jay!

Fortuitous :)

I'd like to add that I am running the same mobo and I've run into quite a few issues with OC'ing my 6300. at 1 point I had it running stable at 4.4ghz but I was in the process of finding where I wanted my chip to be so I was giving it much more voltage then it needed. I had decided while I was slowly dropping the voltage that I wanted to sit in the middle at 4.5ghz(which is far from unheard of) but knew I still would not need nearly as much voltage and I hadn't touched LLC yet because I hadn't had any Vdroop occur. so my plan was to find the lowest stable voltage and then tweak it up to 4.5ghz. So I noticed that as soon as I got to the point where my chip needed LLC the Vdroop was tremendous I believe I was in the 1.35 range and it was dropping to below stock voltage severely lowering the clock. I was still a little new to OC'ing and wasn't to familiar with LLC(knew what it did but wasn't sure like what was safe etc.) so I looked up specifically how LLC worked on the UD3, and there was a lot of people claiming that it was sketchy because you could fry your chip if a power surge occurs and you were using a lower end PSU. now unfortunately for me I was on a very tight budget and skimped slightly on my PSU and had problems in the past with it and I also live in florida where it seems to storm all the time so I decided to just set the system defaults and avert any sort of risk until I got a new unit.

The crosshairs are badass overclocking boards.

4.6 water here no LLC 1.425vcore on an asrock 990fx extreme 6

Yeah but Screw Gigabyte motherboards on the AM3+ socket, their VRM design and implementation suck for 8 core FX CPUs.

Xender Gatsu that isn't possible...... your eyes can see things up to a maximum of 250 frames a second ... And it never has to adjust and even if it does have to adjust it's so fast you don't notice it because it's like 0.0012 seconds.

well atleast for now it's not possible

I got a 6600k for $190 at microcenter with $30 off a motherboard too

@@nive_ not worth it, you'd just be wasting your money as you won't be able to run many triple A games at all with those CPUs, better to just go used or get a older i5 or wait and save up a little more. Bad advice.

***** It could be my power supply not giving it the voltages it needs but I'm not sure and thermals are fine got it water cooled. But I will try Prime95 thanks for the suggestion.

Do you have a 990 chipset motherboard?

Yeah, Most of the parts I have now was done by my brother 2-3 years ago when I knew nothing about pc parts. And i don't really know any thing about fx boards.

Doothe I got a 990fx Extreme 3

The 990fx Extreme 3 doesnt have very good VRMs and will downclock.

Kaby Lake is marginally better so its up to you. Z170 mobos aren't much cheaper. They are basically the same. You could get a z270 board with the i5 6600k and then later upgrade to an i7

Kabylake is the same price as Skylake and is upgraded. I would get Kabylake unless you see a really cheap deal for Skylake.... Either is good though!

Wait for Ryzen. It'll drop in February.

By all means yes. There are no performance benefits in kaby lake vs. skylake.

Get whatever is cheaper 6600k = 7600k. And as far as Im concerned Kaby Lake also runs at the LGA 1151 socket, so finding a good 1151 mobo is also better, dont just go get the z270 extreme supreme rgb gaming board. Oh yeah, you also have to take into account that the 7600k overclockes at a faster frequency, but real world games will not see much benefit from 4.6 ghz to 5 ghz, but you know, its there to brag. "My CPU hit 5 ghz stable bwahahaha!!!" But I really think waiting for Ryzen is much more worth since it is rumored to release somewhere around March. If you really are impatient though, be prepared to cry at your wallet after seeing price drops.

Silicon Lottery my friend...

yeah, but an fx 8320 at 4,7 with 1,56v is too much for any cooler (except for a triple rad custom watercooling).

yeap... silicon lottery is a bitch. In the past i had a phenom II X4 960t at 4,4ghz with the same 212 evo. That chip wasnt even a golden chip, it was a platinum chip. a very good phenom sample hit 4,2ghz and most of it hit 4 ghz. So... i think you have lucky once in a life....

Got my old 8320 up to 5,2Ghz Gaming stable :D Prime and Aida64 runs were pointless since they alway´s crashed. Turned it down to 5Ghz though it got pretty damm got even with a 360mm rad. CPU worked perfectly for 1 year and a half until the Motherboard CPU plug decided to melt :D

dont blame an Cpu for pickin up an bad cheap mobo as Gigabyte..weak PSU ...than whos the Beach then? Got an MSI 990fxa with FX 8300 OCed at 5 Ghz 1.586 Water stable 3dmark-ed
