So I OC'ed my FX-6300 @ 4Ghz at 1.3V

Temps are at 40c(HWMonitor) while running Prime95 Blend test - I feel that this is weird but its also the same reading as AIDA64
Im using a Hyper 212X cooler


No Bluescreens or unexpected shutdowns EXCEPT
If the system boots and I open programs at startup (The Eset antivirus startup logo didn't show up / The system didn't finish loading up the startup programs ) then suddenly the system shutsdown

I haven't tested it in games yet because I recently formated my system coz i added a ssd



As much as possible I dont want to bump my voltage above 1.4V or so because of the poor powerphase of my board ( 4+1 970A-DS3P)

I would be careful trying to overclock at all with just a 4+1, even if its just an FX6.

 

FX temperature probes are known to be wildly inaccurate.  Supposedly, the hotter they get, the more accurate they become.

 

If you're crashing while overclocked, but not crashing at stock, its an unstable OC.  Just that simple.

Even at startup? O.o - I got a sudden peak of 129c wtf (just a sudden peak of 129 then back to the normal temp)

I'll update you when I reconfigure my settings
