I am currently not in a good enough financial state to upgrade my system, so in the coming week, I have come to the agreement that I want to OC my CPU. I read around on the internet that the FX6300 still has some life in it for current games if it is overclocked.
I have read some guides around and have a good understanding on most of the terms but I don't know how and where I should start.
Does anyone have any advice or guides that I should follow?
PC SPECS:
FX6300 w/ BeQuiet Pure Rock Cooler
GIGABYTE GA-970A-UD3P
GIGABYTE 1050 TI
EVGA 500W 80+
I have also found that the 970A-UD3P has an 8+2 VRM phase so I hope that the motherboard shouldnt be a problem
I believe I should probably start by trying to reach the highest clock on the stock voltage after disabling turbo, C6, cool n quiet and SVM and also saw that after each edit to the CPU I should perform a small FFT prime 95 test to check if any cores fail and move forward accordingly
