alright so i broke down and got a desktop after my laptop hinges are finally falling apart (the things been with me everywhere) laptop just plane was worn out so i was gonna see about building one on the cheap as life has other expenses than a computer but i found one locally someone already had built just he wanted something diff. got the pc on the cheap. this is whats all in it to the best of my knowledge( i tore it down cleaned it out and read sn's. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/PKt8Ps
everything seams to work fine for what i use the thing for. But the Cpu just will overload itself randomly i got maybe 100-150 i can spend on a better cpu but what can fit in my mother bored and what would be a better upgrade. Im not the most knowledgeable in this area of things Im more of a mechanic on things that has nuts and bolts. any input is appreciated.

It's probably just be a problem with the thermal paste, between the CPU and the CPU cooler.


But anyways... https://pcpartpicker.com/product/TqxfrH/amd-cpu-ad785kxbjabox

Issue with amd's current shit is that theres no way to upgrade further from the 8350.

Thats why i3/i5 is more interesting choices

Youre gonna need some badass cooler and psu for a 9590 making it more expensive than running a i7 which, is still better than the 9590
