Over Clocking AMD FX-6300

[creatureofthecave]

I have an FX-6300 cooled by an hyper 212 evo in a msi 760gma-34fx mobo. The highest clock i have got is 4.4ghz using AMD Overdrive. What clock speeds have you guys seen and whats your cooling?

Disable turbo, disable cool n quiet etc but tbh that board will shit itself and die possibly killing your CPU at the same time if you're not keeping your temps under control and a hyper 212 is an intel only cooler imo.

Package temps are only accurate under load, you should also stress test your overclock with IBT AVX like so
