I wouldn't put 140W specced CPU in such a board if I were in your shoes .
Why not use CPU that is on supported CPUs list?

Some people is already running 8350 @ 5GHz on air. Therefore no problem here with current mobos. Maybe a series of Centurion-certified mobos could be released with those chips .
First of all, please say me where you did read the word stable in my post. Next, say me why you are focusing on that whereas avoiding the main part of my post, which was about mobos.
I'm unsure what this revision does. I have 2 Asus Sabertooth 990FX mbs, both rev 1 and 2. Now they have a Rev 2 Gen 3. The Asus mbs tend to handle the higher voltage. It appears that the revised Gigabyte mb will most likely handle the same. Perhaps AMD is going to push the PileDriver as far as it can go using higher voltage. I'm not sure the market is open for that. Moreover, if the costs go up substantially for the mb and high end 8770/9000 you will approach the cost of the Intel 2011 platform. Then AMD will have to compete with a 6 core 12 thread chip.So people have to buy the same board again?
I'd say that's going over the top, comparable to top of the line IVB/Haswell CPU+mobo surely would be more realistic IMO but then again it'll be the novelty factor, like with the Titan, that'll sell these chips if nothing else !I'm unsure what this revision does.

Asrock, MSI and IDC dont agree with you there. So sorry to dissapoint you.
Example:
Well TR has repeated the review with some of the suggestions I made in that thread and now they are measuring 75W of difference. Still a bit high, but far from the unrealistic 100W that you read often here in the forumsthe original 96 W between the i7-3770k and the FX-8350 are reduced to 68-83 W.

Man, I wonder when ShintaiDK will get tired of being always wrong about his predictions.
Nope, the FX-8350 has a TDP of 125W.
AMD - our 220W Chip is better in every way then the intel Extreme Edition.
Its Extreme Overclock at 5ghz... its Extremely power hungry at 220W, recomended u use a EXTREME PSU, and its going to run extremely hot, requiring a EXTREME Cooler.
Everything about it is EXTREME!!!
You cant even use our CPU unless your system is EXTREME!!
Now how Overpowered is our chip!!!!
AMD won... Yup...
<---- trying to say that with a straight face but finding it very difficult.
If you're into watercooling why would a 220w cpu be an issue? I also see all sorts of crazy sli and crossfire setups which completely dwarfs 220w.
Aww, there's only been a few. PS4 being an APU, XBox One being an APU, 5GHz Piledriver... I'm only calling it a pattern when there's no LGA Broadwell.
And K models contain TSX.
400 bucks? This thing can cool CPUs up to 300W and it costs 75 dollars on newegg... And it's air cooler (big one at that).so tell me who spends 400 dollars on just COOLING for a AMD processor? :\

Cuz id tell them unless... they REALLY ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE AMD.... spend the extra 400 and go intel.
no pal...this cpu has one purpose only...
Its called a LN2 Pot... and 15 min of sub zero glory, until everyone in the room is talking high pitched from all the nitrogen which boiled off.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...
thats only good if ur gonna keep the cpu @ STOCK! :thumbsup:
also u never take the full heat load on said sink.
You always assume half the given value... because vendors always take value high.
Also heat sinks work wayyy more efficiently at higher values, which vendors always push...
In short... dont ever listen to a vendors full claims without seeing the actual data report.
So realistically that dual tower sink is golden for around 150W, and around 200W its pushing it without having monster static fans.
Yea, that's why every 7970/Titan comes with endless liquid nitrogen. Obviously you cannot cool a chip that uses much power without it.
