you just need to go to the website of your motherboard brand, then after that you just click the motherboard, when you are now in the site just type your motherboard model, then click the driver, then chose the US when you download the sound and video driver

SOURCE: which motherboard should i use with AMD Phenom? X4

It really depends on how much money you wish to spend and with that comes the features you can enjoy. On the lower end you will end up with mATX motherboards with on board video and not much expansion/slots, in the middle of the pack $80-$110 more slots are available and possibly SLi/Crossfire capabilities. The higher end boards allow you to have the features of the other classes, plus more memory, slots, fancy heat distribution equipment, and exotic chipsets. I prefer Gigabyte, Asus for the higher end and medium to low I tend to look at MSI, Biostar, DFI, Abit.

I hope this helps.

SOURCE: is it possible to over

Yes, every processor can be overclocked, but be very careful when overclocking processors. The increased heat can damage a processor and shorten it's life significantly. Ensure your processor does not get too hot during the oveclocking procedure. All overclocking should be done in small increments. The X3 8600 can be oveclocked to close to 2.7GHz safely with air cooling.
The best overclock is always through the motherboard. Depending on your BIOS you can raise the Front Side Bus (in small increments) in order to bump up the total frequency. If you have an unclocked processor, you can try to raise the multiplier. After every increase, you should stress test your computer using PRIME 95. If your computer locks up, drop down the clock speed and leave it there. Your computer should always be stable. You may have to raise the voltage of your processor to get to where you want. If you give the model of your motherboard, I can give you more detailed instructions.
Make sure you have CPU-Z (http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html). - this will show you all the details of your processor. If you would like some more detail, check out this link:http://www.wikihow.com/Overclock-a-PC and feel free to message me. If you didn't understand some of the things in this post, I'd recommend not overclocking your PC - it can be dangerous and ruin your computer if you don't know what you are doing. Alex

Problem with AMD 2.1GHz Phenom X3 Tri-Core 8450 AM2+ 3.5MB HD8450WCJ3BGH

Your motherboard might finally need replacement. If the temperature sensors aren't working and the motherboard isn't controlling the CPU fan, that shows you might have some problems with it. Did you try going into BIOS Setup and checking your settings? Check the cooling settings. Many motherboards have aggressive CPU temp monitoring as well, so if the CPU gets hot, the PC will shut down.

AMD 2.1GHz Phenom X3 Tri-Core 8450 AM2+ 3.5MB HD8450WCJ3BGH

That CPU will not work in that motherboard. That motherboard is socket AM3, while the CPU is socket AM2. The sockets are not much different, but they are designed to prevent trying to use a CPU that only supports DDR2 memory in a motherboard that only supports DDR3 memory. You would need to find a motherboard that has socket AM2 to use that CPU.

Amd phenom faulty

Replace cpu fan , failed cpu fan might have caused CPU stoped working. If you are sure about the CPU fails then replace the CPU. If the problem seems continues after that too, then PC might have failed to boot due to other reasons. What shows on the screen once you power on the computer? There could be , motherboard , or harddisk faults too. Try unplugging other parts and see if the computer boots from CD or USD flash or floppy drive!! Once you know that motherboard works then replace the CPU. There could be BIOS setup problem. Did you check the BIOS for harddisk is set properly.
