Hello, I'm planning to push my FX6300 to its highest performance settings. I only intend to run it for a year, so I'm concerned about its long-term durability. Please share your advice.
Thank you!
My setup details:
FX 6300
Asus crosshair v formula-z MB
2 top exhaust fans and 1 back
2 intake fans in the front for the radiator
CorsairH60 water cooler
1600mhz DDR3 2x8gb
2x Zotac GTX 950s in SLI
Current benchmark results: stable 4ghz at 1.275v, stable 4.2ghz at 1.31250v
Any suggestions on voltage and frequency adjustments? Especially for the CPU. Thanks again for your guidance.

I question if H60 would allow you to exceed 4.5 GHz, therefore modifying the multiplier and maintaining stable voltage should suffice for the upgrade.

CountMike's thoughts on the situation are clear. He believes the H60 wouldn't allow overclocking beyond 4.5 GHz, so tweaking the multiplier and maintaining voltage should suffice. He also mentions running stress tests and found that temperatures rise significantly above 4.5 GHz, leading him to stick with the stable 4.4 until he can upgrade to a better processor. Thanks!
