Is the OC FX-6300 correctly configured on the BIOS?
Is the OC FX-6300 correctly configured on the BIOS?
Hello community!
I recently learned a lot online about OC and FX-6300.
My aim is to hit at least 4.2 - 4.3 GHz while keeping my GPU running smoothly for WOW:Legion.
Here are my specs:
ASRock 970DE3/U3S3
DDR3-1600
Sapphire Radeon HD 7770
8 GB DDR3 SDRAM
Hyper 212x as a cooler
OS: Windows 10
Before beginning the real tests with Prime95, I have some concerns about the BIOS settings during overclocking. For example, if I accidentally left on a power-saving mode.
Do you think I might have missed something?
Yes, you can turn on C&Q and other energy-saving options once a stable OC is achieved, but you should monitor your programs and games closely since they might sometimes cause brief delays or issues when switching to higher performance modes.
The VRM mentioned is located in the motherboard, it provides power to the processor, memory, and PCIe slots. A comparable module exists on graphics cards as well; these components can become hotter due to increased voltage or power delivery. They typically include built-in protection against overheating and can reduce output voltage to slow down the power they supply.
I don't support OC for GPUs because the outcomes are inconsistent even with small improvements.
GPUs also draw power from the PCIe slot, which can reach up to 75W.

I personally don’t support overclocking GPUs because the improvements are often inconsistent with small gains.
GPUs also draw power from the PCIe slot (up to 75W), and if a card has no extra power, it places even more demand on the motherboard.
I just installed the mx-4 and the Hyper 212x cm. After more than 20 minutes of running PR95, everything is normal – core temp at 45°C, core 45C. However, I still face bluescreen issues from Windows and occasional black screens even with lower temperatures. I set vcore to 1.35V and CPU ratio to 20.5 (4100GHz). I’m wondering if these problems might be linked to my PSU: Cooler Master Elite Power RS-460-PSAR-I3
