hey , i am new to this overclock thing , i have a FX 4100 which is a default 3.6ghz , then with the guidance from my friend , i manage to overclock it until 4.2ghz , but heres the problem , i cannot manually set the base mhz myself therefore i using an auto setting and i just play with the multiplier , and also i cannot manually set the voltage also , i am using a cheap asus motherboard RM180 , so can teach me on this overclocking thing ? Thanks

@ppslim, keep vcore below 1.45 and temp below 60s, whichever comes first. also read moar la, oc'ing amd =/= upping cpu multi + voltage. and (imo) be very conservative wink.gif
read this too: http://semiaccurate.com/2012/11/20/overclo...0/#.UUpTm6zxFf8 (if tl; dr fx 8350 can reach 4.5ghz on stock cooling )

5ghz need very good (and expensive tongue.gif) air/liquid cooler, good (high-end) mobo with vrm cooling, and fast (1600/1866) ram -this is mostly true for 8-core visheras;
the quad/hexa cores are rated at lower tdp so maybe can skimp a bit on the mobo and cpu-cooling -i think i read this in some forum... just be careful and good luck biggrin.gif

thanks bro

no such the safest-for-OC term. the best is keep the temp as low as possible.
i'm not sure what is max temp for FX series. but i'll keep em below 60'C at full load

*after googling around, i think your mobo can do light OC only...
but don't worry, you try first then post here to let us know the result  notworthy.gif

ah ic , thx for the info , i will post my result once i have the time to play with the OC .

@raydenex actually those temps (46-47*c coretemps) are good -imo, and try to up vcore a bit and see if it can withstand prime95 (not my favorite, but to each his own wink.gif

@ppslim:
cache: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU_cache
TDP: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_design_power

long story short TDP = how much heat can the processor take
cache = how fast the processor can work , lower cache = more faster work done
am i correct?

how much heat can the CPU cooler handle
...depends on the CPU's architecture and what it was designed for -"higher" or "lower" cache does not necessarily mean faster or slower 'work' done. just think of them as CPU's equivalent of system RAM

wow thx for the clearing , and here i thought i know alot about computer , i guess i haven`t learned enough

Hello Fellow Amd users , i am thinking whether should i change my FX-4300 to FX-6300 or FX-6350 , because i am using GTX780ti , and my FX-4300 is bottlenecking my GPU which not only let me play on only high settings for BF4 , but i tested using furmark that i only receiving 30++fps , any suggestions ? or is it GTX780ti only can play on high settings ?

Wow.. for 780ti u should get urself a FX8350 or Intel i5 or i7 instead..  laugh.gif

initially i planned to get an i5 , but since i am stuck with a AM3+ mobo , i have no choice but to use it , so my budget is within FX-6350 range , any advice ?
