Ended up getting a bad CPU. Things happen, got a new 8350. Will be using the warranty on the busted CPU and hope to have that fixed to use in another system or sell. Don't bother using the stock cooler, all it does is concentrate heat around the cpu and memory causing a whole world of heat issues. Besides, the cooler (warmer) sounds like a hair dryer and will make everything else HOT! Use a Corsair, Antec or custom water cooling setup to carry heat away from the CPU and main board.
