So I just got a FX-8320 and I stuck it in my Asrock 970 Extreme 3. First, second, third boot, no issue.
Then, I touched the bios. Changed the multiplier a bit, and all hell broke loose. Saw the bios splash screen, it was discolored and replaced with black. Computer goes into boot cycle. Nothing happens. Restart? Nothing. Reset bios? Nothing. Reseat everything, tried a different GPU, ram slots, even put the 955 back in. Can't get it to do much more than spin the fans, drives and light up.
Any ideas or should I start looking at motherboards?
