I've been attempting to boost my FX 6300 black edition's performance, achieving a steady overclock of 4.4ghz at 1.300v in AMD Overdrive. However, when trying the same settings in my BIOS to make it permanent, my PC refuses to save the changes and I have to reset the BIOS settings again. I'm using an MSI 970 Gaming Pro Carbon.

I can assist with only a few things, I'm not familiar with much about them.
1) I overclocked my CPU to unstable settings just to reach top 3 in the CPUZ database for my chip. I managed to do it for a sufficient time on Windows to verify it with CPUZ, but I couldn't even start with less aggressive overclocks. You might need higher voltage (if safe for your processor) or lower frequency.
2) You can inspect the CPU input voltage and slightly increase it (again, ensure it's safe and determine the limits).
3) Adjust the cache/noncore/north or south bridge voltage (this also requires checking).
