Throttling

So it's my first time overclocking. I've seen a few tutorials now so i think i know what i'm doing, however always open to advice (probably need lots).
So my setup is an fx-8350 with corsair h100i on a ga-990fx-ud3.
So on prime95 i get about 10 seconds of 4.7ghz then it throttles on some cores and rarely all the cares at the same time to 1.4ghz. I've heard the the mobo can sometimes throttle and that to stop it i need to ask gigabyte to send me the beta bios.
However i pretty sure it's the multipliers. Instead of having just the one x23.5
i hav x23.5(7-23.5). Pretty sure an x7 would take it to 1.4 so my question is how do i get rid of this "range" of multipliers so it stays as just the one?

Inserted is a CPU-z shot.

As i said any advice would be nice ! :)

your problem is the vrm's on the motherboard, its a known problem with the gigabyte ud3
 
Apparently seting the load line calibration to 'extreme' on the ud3 helps a lot but dosent stop it entirely.
