Safe vcore voltage for fx 6300.

[hhuuy897]

What is the safe vcore voltage for fx 6300? And what is the max safe voltage for fx 6300?

My vcore voltage is 0.840v when idle n varies between 1.345v - 1.456v under load.
As mentioned here:

Max volt is 1.55v but every thread i read everybody is posting different different voltage so im worried cuz my cpu is only 5months old n im running it in stock speed.

Help.

I would agree with maddogfargo on the matter, you don't want to have the voltage going too high for constant use otherwise you will shorten the life of your CPU massively

What motherboard are you using ??
I've posted many times on this before.
You are far better going into BIOS, disabling turbo core completely & setting a base clock of 19 or 20 for 3800/4000mhz.

This will actually lower the max voltage draw to around 1.36v & will also remove those clock & voltage fluctuations under load - its a win win situation in every way.

I have a 6300 running at 4.5ghz for the last 3 years, never had a crash air cooled with a hyper evo and a very budget mobo.

pretty sure I have not gone above 1.4v not at home now to check though, if you want I can show you my bios settings exactly.
