When you installed the Processor did you use thermal paste? Is the
Heatsink/Fan stock
meaning did it come with the Processor? I would check for overheating.

But if the CPU was on the older motherboard, you must remove the thermal
paste, clean BOTH surfaces (fan and CPU) then reapply before installing CPU
in new motherboard.
