This is your Cpu Right?

If i'm right Turbo boost is 4.1ghz instead of getting 4.0ghz go 4.1ghz without changing anything just disable Turbo Speed & change Cpu Clock Ratio to 4.1ghz & test & see what your high temps are!! I have to look more into on this Cpu to find out max temps & voltage it can handle!!

Good luck bud

I have an FX-6300 cooled with CM 212+ and after a lot of trial and error here is what I have found to be stable for a 4.26 GHz Clock with max temps of 56C:

Multiplier 20.5
Bus Clock 208
Turn Off Turbo
Take almost all values off of AUTO in BIOS and put to stock unless otherwise mentioned here
Leave Vdroop on Auto
Keep Cool 'n Quiet on by default and leave other power savings at default as you see fit
CPU Offset Voltage 0.075
Set RAM speed to 1664
RAM at 0.05V above stock

For some reason I cannot adjust my voltage on my BIOS, I am using the same motherboard but when I try to change the voltage to a different number it turns back to Auto.
