So we recently got ourself the AMD fx-8350, ofcourse the first thing we did was trying to overclock.
Works all fine but the voltage required to run stable is ridiculous high, what todo? Temps get pretty high on air with these voltages.
Note; i'm new on the AMD platform with overclocking

DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS MEMBER

You can try bringing voltage down a little, and raising LLC up a little. You might try voltage down two ticks, LLC up one tick. On my 8350, I can get stable with a lot less voltage with more LLC, but the trade-off was a little more heat. You just have to find a 'happy medium'.
Also, if you hit 63°C in Cinebench, IBT and Prime95 are going to be quite a bit warmer.
Whats your CPU Cooler and whats your delta temps?

Sure is ridicules how 8 physical cores uses 1.5v

Most people are getting around 1.4v for that type of OC. CPUz may be reading a higher voltage than what it really is.

Very nice sir, however is it stable? i could run higher aswell, validate with cpu-z and say 'Bam, i got 382Ghz stable' while unstable 😠

In the bios i cant get higher then 1.49V however while in clickbiosII or that other app i can set a higher voltage, anyway i set it a bit over 1.5V as you could read
The voltage needed also depends on how well your motherboard conditions the power.
For example, to overclock my 2500K on my GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 would require more volts than it would to overclock my 2500K on, say, an ASRock Z77 Extreme11.
Bah. I'll think of something later.

i got a msi 990fxa-gd80, i will update the first post with my pc specs
