[utfy]

Hi there.
My system is:
fx 6300
8gb ram
mobo ASUSTeK Computer INC. M5A78L-M LX3
550w psu
and a collermaster 212 evo for cooling

The simple answer would be no.

There's little to be had from overclocking that outdated cpu. Even more so, if your 8GBs of ram is only single channel.

You can overclock it if you want, but don't expect any earth shattering speed increases.
