CPU cable: Atx 12v 2x4 are the cables that mainly supply power to the cpu via the motherboard
GPU calbe:6+2 power cable that mainly supplies power to the video card !I use 2x(6+2)

I was able to activate the default features before. What i thought to be a cpu issue or a motherboard issue turned out to be a cable problem.Neither the Cpu,the motherboard,the video card nor the psu have any problems,only exception being the damned cables...i guess moving my pc around twice a month took it's toll on the cables.

golden333, what do you mean by CPU and GPU cables? Just curious. :)
 
And were you able to reactivate all the default features like Turbo Core?

 So,it's stable! Played for 2 hours,no crash,before this every 5-30 min it would crash.So i guess it was the cable at fault.Wich one i do not want to test :D,either the cpu cables or the Video card cables.Maybe this post will help someone else so they won;t have to go through the brain grinding hope breaking process of not knowing what the problem is. 

So if anyone encounters a similar problem and they can;t figure out what's causing it,check the cables,they can become a little dislodged and not form a good connection.and whenever your pc demands a little more power,crashes like this may occur.The crash is the UEFI's way of protecting your pc!

Thank you guys for helping me out,coming here gave me some hope :) and made me look on things from outside the box!!

You would be surprised how often it turns out to be simple, usually after you have gone through weeks of headaches and troubleshooting LOL

I was also going to suggest reseating the RAM and GPU making sure the slots are clear of dust and debris Wink

Ok. Well, I just tried to offer up my experiences. Good luck then with it.

the PSU is not broken,i'm afraid if i send them the psu like this they will just send it back to me the same way...with a lot of time wasted and money on transportation fees.Like i said in my previous post,the psu theory is busted!And no,no overclock,default bios settings,even underclocked the cpu and still got crashes.For the past 2 hours no crashes yet,seems stable.Maybe it really was the damned cables.Will get back with a few updates later.]]> Tue, 20 Dec 2016 09:41:59 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=20966&title=990fx-extreme9-and-amd-fx-9590-unstable#20966 <![CDATA[990fx Extreme9 and AMD Fx 9590 UNSTABLE : 41 is due to an unexpected shutdown.Are...]]> https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=20965&title=990fx-extreme9-and-amd-fx-9590-unstable#20965 Author: wardog

41 is due to an unexpected shutdown.

Are you overclocking? If so, as a test reset the BIOS to UEFI Defaults, Save and Exit, then see if this continues. It could be a component has finally had too much voltage fed it and is beginning to fail.

Otherwise borrow or get another "capable' and known good PSU in there to test with.


""My PSU is still has warranty,can i just send it back to them like this ?!""

Isn't that what Warranties are for?

i did uninstall the drivers,not once but many times over and over still had the same issue,but only in windows 10.Just checked the event log it says Source: Kernel-Power  Event ID:41.
i didn;t give many details about the crash, The screen simply goes black and CRRRBRR noises from the speakers :D.

My PSU is still has warranty,can i just send it back to them like this ?!

P.S. Scratch the PSU Theory ! just ran Prime95 max power consumption and unigine at the same time,no errors. Before i did this, i pressed a little on the video card power connectors,and swaped the 8xpin cpu power with the second one.For now there is stability!I will run a few more tests and post again about the results! 

It can;t be that simple can it ?

Check your windows system event logs for errors, if you see a lot of "driver failed and recovered" (also called TDRs) then you may have an issue with your GPU or power supply (not providing enough power to the GPU anymore). I would start by using DDU to completely remove your display drivers then install the last stable version you used. If that does not sort out the issue then maybe try another PSU. They have a nasty habit of dying slowly....]]> Tue, 20 Dec 2016 06:59:39 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4062&PID=20963&title=990fx-extreme9-and-amd-fx-9590-unstable#20963
