Fx 6300 Clock Speed

[razr125]

By only increasing the multiplier, I have it turbo clocked at 4.5 ghz on all 6 cores. Temps haven't increased yet. Using a hyper212 evo cooler. Does anyone have an idea of how high these chips can go? Im starting to be glad that I didnt go i3 after all.

That really depends on each chip. Remember, not every chip is the same, but I wouldn't try going above 4.8ghz. That still doesn't mean you should rip on the i3, when the i3 still outperforms your Oc'ed FX6300.

Maybe you will want to take those blinkers off.

Im at 4.7 right now. i hit 5.1 as a max and it started to heat up. The fx6300 outperforms the i3 in every use i have for it, especially at these speeds. Its on the low end i5 levels now. Not a fanboy, just being realistic.
