FX-6300's Unusual Overclocking Experience
FX-6300's Unusual Overclocking Experience
Alright I have overclocked my Processor to Always run at 4.1 ghz
No Problems.
Now, here recently I have tried(and failed) to overclock to several different overclocks.
I always Get a blue screen. Now I can return to the original overclock to 4.1 ghz only after setting Everything back to default. Only then can I clock it back up to 4.1. Now when the Blue screen doesn't happen I start up with it clocked at 3.5 with no turbo-boost.
I was just wondering if Anyone knew what I could do to clock to 4.5.
My Secs are
CPU:Fx-6300 Black edition
GPU:MSI Rx 480 Gaming X 8gb
PSU: Corsair 600w gold plus
Mobo: Gigabyte 790
Thanks!
Count Mike asked about your setup and cooling method. You're starting from scratch, using the BIOS to adjust the processor clock speeds. Your cooler is working well, and you're maintaining a temperature around 50-60°C during intense gaming sessions. You also shared a link to an Antec water cooler product page.
With just the multiplier in mind, what about the processor voltage?
Count Mike asked about the specific model number. The link provided refers to a GB-GA-78LMT-USB3 revision 6.
If it assists, the logs display
CPU: 17.5 x 200mhx (adjusted to 20.5 earlier)
memory clock: 1333
Ht speed: 2200 mhz (no changes made)
I believed it was MB's fault, but this unit should manage 4.1GHz without any issues. The FX 6300 is a 95W processor and at 4.1GHz should barely reach the 100W limit while MB requires 125W or more. Is there an LLC (Load Line Calibration) setting in the BIOS?
CountMike reviewed the situation and noted that MB might be the issue but the system should manage 4.1GHz smoothly. The FX 6300 has a 95W processor, which should not exceed 100W at 4.1GHz while MB requires more than 125W. There appears to be an LLC (Load Line Calibration) setting in the BIOS. Yes, it's configured very high. He also discovered a workaround by changing the FSB speed to 210/220 and using CPB, which adjusted the frequency to around 4.197GHz under load. It usually drops back to 3.8GHz when under stress.
