Are your core temperatures stable? FX 6300 @4.4Ghz
CPU model AMD FX-6300, frequency 4407.66mHz (stable, passed 2 hours OCCT test and played for about 8 hours without BSOD, errors, or shutdowns). Ref*Multi: 205x21.5. Voltage 1.450v, NB 1.2v, NB frequency 2000, HT bus speed 2460, NB voltage 1.10v. RAM: 8GB Corsair Vengeance 1600 @ 9-9-9-24. Motherboard: AsRock 970 Extreme3. Cooling: air cooling with Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO (2 fan setup push/pull). Operating system: Windows 7 64 bit.
Question:
Apologies for the beginner's guide, this is my first attempt to overclock a system.
1. Core voltage set at 1.450V, but in CPU-Z it fluctuates between 1.432V-1.440V-1450V – is that normal?
2. Is CPUTIN the correct temperature reading? I notice it spikes up to 127°C during testing, yet there are no errors or warnings. >.<
3. Is the core voltage suitable for a 4.4GHz processor? I previously used 1.435V and the stability core stopped. Is 1.450V acceptable?
(Sorry for my unclear English.
😀)
Here’s a screenshot of my temperature readings after playing Assassin's Creed 3.
Core temp: Idle at 22°C~32°C / Light load 32°C~40°C / Heavy load 40°C (Current max is 53°C)
CPU temp during stress test reached a maximum of 67°C.
Great temperatures, though i was hoping for a question about temps above 20 degrees.
The upper limit for that CPU is 72(?). It's okay as long as you maintain a distance of at least 10 degrees from the maximum, which means you're safe up to 62. If it goes higher, you should think about lowering the voltage or using a better cooling method.
