If it is overheating m8 it will shutdown and restart as its designed to do,dont know the spec off the top of me head.http://www.google.co.uk/.
A bigger heatsink wont do it any harm or go a miss and may make it run a little more efficiently..................
B4 you get a new heatsink remove the old clean off all the thermal paste form it and the cpu.Reapply see if its any lower............Last edited by lagerland; 17 May, 2013, 08:47.I know you believe you understand what you think i said

From what I've read about these they do run seriously hot.
The standard work around seems to be the Corsair H80i. Not cheap, but probably worth it in the long term.Comment

looked at that H80i and it looks god but I would prefer a non water cooled solution. could any1 point me in the right direction for a AMD FX 8350 CPU...Comment

Sorry if I didn't make my self clear, I have the CPU its a heat sink and fan im after. but not a water cooled option..Comment

69 is a little bit hot, but depends what you're doing with it. My AMD 6 core normally floats around 52 to 60 degrees, although I saw it hit 93 degrees last week, which is really too hot. The motherboard shut it down anyway, then I took it to bits and cleaned out the heatsink
You probably need to check the BIOS settings for the fan speed etc, try keep it 50 to 60 degrees, and if it won't consider a new heatsink and fan. When you say 69 degrees on "load" what do you mean by load?
My master plan is to live forever..... going to plan so far
Despite the cost of living, it's still very popular.
No good deed goes unpunished....

Hi m8, what I mean about the word "load" is that all 8 cores are running pretty much full. I want a air cooled heat sink and fan. size is a factor as I don't have a gaming case....Comment

he said size was a factor, a smaller setup try Noctua NH-L12 Low Profile High Performance CPU Cooler | eBay
Personally I run a set of Noctua NH-D14 Dual Radiator and Fan AMD Intel Quiet CPU Cooler Heatsink | eBay
but if size an issue then you got no chance with those bad boysComment

Hi guys, I've just bought a new cooler and im sure it will fit (Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo) but im worried of replaceig the cooler. ive replaced one cooler before and I bent one prong on the cpu and I don't want this to happen again. im thinking wheather I could just get away with the stock cooler. The max temp im getting is 58 degrees not the 69 degrees I said which was wrong. so could I live with the stock fan or should I risk it an try fitting the new cooler... Thankx GuysComment

58 on a amd at this time of year at full load isn't mega high tbh you should be good with thatComment
