I took some pictures of my bios settings, hope this helps OP. IMHO I believe your issue maybe more thermal related than a power draw issue, since your throttling occurs while running at stock. One more note, even though it's not shown in any of the pics, I have my NB voltage set 1.3v instead...
From what I have read, it's not a temperature issue causing these FX processors to throttle but due more to the power draw of Bulldozer/Piledriver and a limitation of some motherboards to cope the excessive power draw that these chips are capable of when stressed, causing the boards VRM's to...
I have an FX-8320, and the same motherboard, and I also experienced the same exact issue. Try the recommendations from the link below. Right now I have my 8320 @4.6ghz with no more throttling issues.

I guess I missed the memo...Haswell's IGP is going to be faster than what exactly in gaming? How do you know this? Any links saying so? Just curious, that's all.
I've been thinking about purchasing that cooler, but it has two drawbacks for me. #1. The price. #2. The size, from what I understand the heatsink will over hang the end of the card adding to overall length. It's already a tight fit in my case for my 7950.
I was hoping that there maybe...
Here's my card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814102962 , it usually runs in the upper 70's lower 80's depending on the fan speed. Lately I've been setting the fan @75% manually to keep it the temps under 80c, but it's fairly loud at that speed.
Yes definitely check to see if the heatsink is mounted properly. I made made a recent discovery a couple of days ago with my 7850 twin frozr II while cleaning out my case. While removing the card I noticed the the heatsink was loose, meaning the I could actually twist from side to side.
