Help! Overclocking amd Fx6300/Ram Question
I have some experience with overclocking but am not a specialist.
Assist me in achieving the optimal mix of performance and stable temperatures.
Graphics - Asus 1050 Ti 4GB DDR5
RAM - DDR3 dual channel, 4GB x2, each module at 800 MHz
However, my RAM stick lists 1333 MHz instead.
CPU - AMD FX-6300 Black Edition Unlocked
CPU Cooler - Cooler Master Hyper H410R
Motherboard - GA-78LMT-S2PT
Power Supply - Corsair 450W or 550W
SSD - WD 240 GB
Currently, I run at 3.9 GHz with a maximum temperature of 48°C max and 30°C min. I still have doubts it will fail after a few hours.
I apologize for the lengthy message; my only request is to clarify the RAM settings.
In CPU-Z, there are two tabs called "Memory" and "Speed".
I would like to know the safest timing configurations in the Memory tab of CPU-Z and Speed. Also, please try to explain clearly so it makes sense for me. Thank you.
In cpuz the reported memory speed is half the true speed because ddr means double data rate
The SPD tab displays the presets on the RAM's control chip, while the Memory Tab presents the current settings and frequency at half of the actual value.
I understand you're checking your CPU's overclock potential. Please review your specifications carefully regarding the fan and SMPS details. I can help explain what to consider when increasing your CPU's clock speed, but please note that going above your current clock requires careful evaluation of voltage, temperature, and stability to achieve the best balance between performance and cooling efficiency.
psu looks naff for overclocking an fx I wouldn't overclock a hex core on less than a 650w, only a quad core on a 500w and not on a 450w,
board
has no vrm heat sink not suited to overclocking
here's a
refrain
they posted earlier
not the best for overclocking
it's not v.good etc. eg. psu and mobo might fry which is a pc not working any more, whereas a working pc is at least worth something and here they say you would
probably damage
something even with a quad core on it.
Here's
a link with the search terms I used to look up the fortunes of your board.
thread can close now if any questions arise, feel free to post.
I got it working at 4.1 ghz at normal temperature of 32°C, with the highest being 48°C.
I initially thought Windows 10 wouldn't handle an overclocked CPU well, but then I realized the issue was the voltage problem.
I increased my voltage to 1.37 and no more crashes occurred—thank you for your reply. Good Day.
