I have a PC with a HD 7970, and FX 6100 it runs great but in some games the FX 6100 bottlenecks the HD 7970. So I would like to know if I can get the same performance of a FX 6300 by overclocking my FX 6100 to 4.0.
Thanks
Who knows a good fan for less than 40 dollars that can keep an intel i5 running cool and can keep the noise level as far down as possible.
