I increased my FX 6300's overclock to 4.3 and the extra fan noise was fine when it was in my room. Now that it's on my desk, the noise is much more noticeable. Can I find a way to run the processor at slower speeds when not under stress, but speed up again during games? Thanks.

A few of the latest CPUs in auto might handle it, while older models likely won't. Since I'm not a big AMD fan, I'm uncertain about yours. You might want to check HW Monitor to see what it's doing.

There is a setting in the BIOS. It activates turbo boost when required and reduces the MHz during idle periods.

There is an setting in the BIOS that controls turbo boost and adjusts MHz during idle. I checked it, but after enabling it, another option appeared regarding a Ratio, leaving me uncertain about what to do next.

It could be due to raising the voltage, and even with a slower CPU, some additional heat remains.

There's an option for that on the BIOS. It will use the turbo boost when needed and scale down the MHz when you're idle.
I saw that option, do I just enable it and that's it? Because when I enabled it another option for a Ratio came up and I wasn't sure if I needed to do anything.
I think you just need to enable it. Do it and test it.
