Hey guys. I wanted to start a thread a long time ago about this but now i'm really out of other options so here it goes.
Cpu:FX6300
Mobo: Gigabyte GA 970A UD3P
Cpu cooler: Arctic Freezer Xtreme Rev 2
Ram: crucial Ballistix 1x8 GB @1600
Psu: Antec Hcg 520M
Case: Nzxt Phantom 240
I've got this Cpu stable @4.2 Ghz with a Vcore of 1.334. All power saving options diasabled.Max temp with prime 95 was 61 Celsius so I thought it was a bit high for only 1.334 vcore. I enabled hpc and Apm mode and my temps were dropped by 10 degrees celsius but also my clocks went down. Cpu-z reports the clock going back to 1.4 and 3.8 Ghz under loadbut also in idle. Is this normal? Cool n quiet not enabled.The vcore does not drop though. I've read that on Gigabyte boards it's often better to leave HPC and APM enabled. I know there are a million threads out there about the fx 6300 but no threads have the exact same problems as mine. Thanks in advance and sorry for the eventual mistakes in my grammar.
