FX 6300 won't go past 3.9 ghz
CountMike shared his thoughts on temperature and power delivery, mentioning his stable performance at 4 GHz. He asked about improving power delivery and suggested pushing it further, noting his cooling setup and motherboard condition.
You can attempt temperatures up to 1.5v and avoid exceeding 1.5v, but the VRM on that board is a point of concern—it only supports 4+1.
CountMike shared his experience about the situation. He mentioned trying different temperatures and keeping the voltage under 1.5v, but noted that the VRM on that model is a concern with only 4+1 stages. He also asked if his voltage levels are too high, referencing others who achieved 3.9 or 4 without extra voltage.
There-s also that darn luck of the draw or "Silicone lottery" but AMD says that up to 1.5v is fine, only problem could be cooling and VRM.
