This is not the latest microcode.

This is the latest:

processor       : 0
vendor_id       : AuthenticAMD
cpu family      : 21
model           : 2
model name      : AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core Processor
stepping        : 0
microcode       : 0x6000832
		  ^^^^^^^^^

in your first email, you did have the latest:

$ cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor       : 0
vendor_id       : AuthenticAMD
cpu family      : 21
model           : 2
model name      : AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core Processor
stepping        : 0
microcode       : 0x6000832

so what changed?
