Frequency boost explanation ?

[momca121212]

Hi.I want to ask Is there any difference between AMD Turbo Core and Intel Turbo Boost technology?
And what CPU frequency can reach AMD FX - 6300 overclocked on ASUS M5A78L-MLX3 with custom air cooler?

Here's the Tom's article about Core vs Boost.

Unfortunately, because each CPU is different, we can't know what kind of overclock you'll be able to achieve. Start slow, and keep a close eye on the stability and temperature of the CPU.

First Question: No. Its a mode set to allow Cores to perform to their max without buying a after market cooler.
Second Question: Really depeneds on quality of motherboard and quality of cooler. However the highest OC i have seen was 4.6 GHz but some claim higher. The 4.6GHz was using the Asus M5A78LM & Corsair h100i

That motherboard was of decent quality yet achieved a good frequency. So its up to you to find the right parts.
