    Is ASUS PRIME X470-PRO compatible with R5 1600x?

    So like the title says is the ASUS PRIME X470-PRO motherboard compatible with 1600x? And what i mean by that will it be plug and play? or will i need the 2600x cpu to change the bios in order to use the 1600x? Another side question is the 2600x worth 197pounds or should I buy the 1600/x? Also...

    AMD FX-6300 and GTX 1060 3GB: worth bottleneck?

    I'm currently overclocked to 4ghz i can send you my bios setup if you want. You could try squize 4.2ghz but it depends on your motherboard and i dont really see the need to push it to the limit.

    AMD FX-6300 and GTX 1060 3GB: worth bottleneck?

    That is exactly what i did i went from an r7 260x 1gb to a 1060 3gb and its pretty crazy the performance differance. also i recommend that you at least 8gb of ram because most games do use more than 3 now a days. You should chose the best answer in order to close the thread so people dont answer...

    AMD FX-6300 and GTX 1060 3GB: worth bottleneck?

    he clearly has no money ... and its a much better upgrade from 750 ti to 1060 than buying a brand new cpu platform and staying on a 750 ti. even if he gets the best cpu on the market he is going to get little extra performance because a 750ti is pretty outdated...

    AMD FX-6300 and GTX 1060 3GB: worth bottleneck?

    I have the gigabyte g1 gaming 1060 3gb with an fx6300 and it works great. the bottlenecks that you will be against are so insignificant that you wont feel like there are any unless you play games with msi opened up and constantly checking cpu and gpu usage. The one thing i recommend is getting a...

    FX6300 Stuck at 3ghz

    i have just updated the bios to the newest one the problem is still there. the clocks seem to sit at 4.2ghz when idling but as soon as i throw prime95 on it jumps between 4.2ghz and 3ghz randomly on each core for pretty much no reason i can see

    FX6300 Stuck at 3ghz

    So like the title suggests my fx6300 seems to never reach a speed higher than 3ghz. when i force it manually to go to 3.5ghz using amd overdrive the temperatures reach into thermal throttling territory in about 55seconds. This is a pre built system and I'm planning to put on a 212evo either...
