AMD FX-6300 OC

Insults aren't allowed on this forum.

Then why the fuck do you keep insulting AMD fans you dolt?

 

Heed this advice.

You're not really in the clear to preach rules on this forum, do keep in mind that you joined the 11th of October and it is today the first of November, from what I can gauge you spammed and/or fanboyed your way up to 747 posts. Be helpful, not a giant fanboy who constantly acts as if AMD processors are some satanic offspring and should be destroyed. People have reasons, please get that into your pea-brained head.

AMD aren't satanic products, what's that lollll when AMD fan boys recommend FX-8350 for 160-200$ for gaming, they get butt hurt when I say G3258 for 70$

2 Core 2 Thread or 8 Core 8 Thread. Hmmm?

2 Cores for $70... so 70x40? $280? $280 vs. $170?

Honestly, think of a G3258 like half of a 4690K. The 4690K is marginally faster in some things than the 8320/8350. So just multiply the G3258's price by two.

FIY Intel G3258 70$ beats the crap of FX-8350 in gaming, specially overclocked.

Because most games don't have multi-threaded support yet.

What cracks me up is that the OP was discussing an overclock and this dolt (thanks for the word @TheSLSAMG) comes running along screaming about how Intel is better in terms of thread performance. He was asking about a fucking overclock, not if the threads were efficient the way they were.

[Krytopsy]

Single Thread performance matter, AMD 2 cores next to Intel 2 cores, Intel G3258 wins in gaming.

Buuuuuuuuuurn

You say that, yet you compared an AMD 8-core with an Intel 2 core.

 

EDIT:

Your G3258 could never render this 1080p at 60 FPS video in 15 minutes, like my 6300 did:

He didn't mention how well a thread performed in the OP. AT ALL. He was asking about pushing an overclock, that post had nothing to do with anything on this thread at all. You didn't have to come running along screaming about Intel's thread performance when it had nothing to do with anything asked in the thread.

if there is no background tasks running. if there is an antivirus or chrome it will probably be a different story

1.3v is lower than most amds stock volts so he's probably doing better

oops didnt think twice about that....i just assumed he was OCing with added voltage...my bad....need more coffee.....

My CPU came at 1.25V (or thereabouts) so, I am OCing with added voltage.

[Priller]

Even if some of that is from the GPU?

 

Yup. Try to get more airflow into the case when you are reseating the cooler. 

 

AMDs max recommended temp for 24/7 use is 62C.  I always say it's fine until 70C under stress testing like Prime95 and OCCT as during gaming you wont reach that load or temp.

That's one heck of a CPU methinks.

It says here that thee stock voltage at 3.5 GHz is 1.35 but after looking up an fx 6300 overclocking guide, the dude said start at 1.3 volts and raise it as needed until you reach your target overclock and then dial it back a bit until it's at its lowest stable voltage. The 1.25 volts was just a guess

so i was right initially

 

Raise the multiplier only to 4ghz. The 6300 can turbo up to 4.1 on stock voltage voltage, just keep raising it and running prime 95 until you get errors, then add a little more juice. At 4.1 ghz stock voltage i started getting errors on 1 of the 6 cores.

Well they vary by bin (higher = worse)

 

What's stock reported in the UEFI?

i find this cool video 

 

 

but dont worry to much for the temps friend, only the stability matter  :lol:

 

1h of Prime95 run (with no errors messages)  B)

[MRSMIFFY]

He is fine to 1.55 according to AMD. You didn't read the title well.

70C is too high for that use case and I would try to reseat the cooler after removing and reapplying new thermal paste.

where did you get this 1.55v information i got my 6300 to 4.8ghz at 1.4125v but was afraid to take it any furter?

AMD released a PDF of "recommended" voltages for air/water and extreme. 

 

Realistically 1.45 seems to be about the limit for air cooling but depends on case flow. 1.5V is about the limit for most water coolers. Obviously this can go either way due to the amount of variables.

 

The 63X0 overclock pretty well.
