FX-8350 overclock issue.

[amdguy24]

Hey guys. New to overclocking. For some reason when i overclock my cpu 8350 at 4.3 ghz. The performance of my pc is kind of choppy, i can notice when i play bf4. It runs much smoother at 4.0 4.1. 4.2 . Looking at the HWmonitor my CPU is always never above 50c playing BF4 on ultra. I posted pictures below of my bios setting for my cpu below. Please and thank you.

OS:W8.1 64 bit.
CPU: FX-8350 Black edition Vishera
GPU: R9-290 Radeon
RAM: 16gb.
Power: Corsair 600.
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3
I'm using Asetek 510LC liquid cooling.

The motherboard uses a weak 4+1 vrm phase so it's not going to OC an 8350 very well.

Did you increase the voltage ? Also did you run a stability stress test?

Try to set the voltage to 1.4v and OC to 4.4 GHz.

can you be more specific please? CPU voltage control(at the bottom) doesn't go to 1.4v . or am i looking at something else?

I switched voltage control to auto and now everything seems to be perfect.
