« on: November 02, 2014, 10:46:01 pm »
the following are all new and the issue has neither improved or worsened- the crash shows no log messages and is driving me nuts

gigabyte  970a-ds3p latest available firmware

amd hd6450
amd 3.5ghz fx8
linux mint
8 gb ram
either amd or open source drivers- no different
replaced power supply for quality model and no change

Please help as cpu tests and ram tests all pass
