oc aamd fx6300 3.5MHz to 4.2MHz

MuddyPaws · 20 May 2016 at 12:44

just oc'd my fx6300 to 4.2MHz and its rock solid stable. On a biostar A960D with a 980 chip in it. does this sound good or will it fry. core temp on load is around 25c and idle around 10/12c. But it seems to be very stable even in stress tests of 1/2 hours. any comments or advice would be great. :cool:

Those temps aren't correct in the slightest. Load temps won't be 25c, more like 65c+. What cooler are you using and download/install RealTemp for a better reading.

What are you using to measure core temp?
25 deg sounds nonsense, id expect 60-70,what cooler are you using.
Run asus realbench stress test to give it a work out to check stability and temps.

using core temp 1.0 rcb for temps, my cooling is a quad480 rad 4x120mm fans with with pump and res.
open air core p5 case. and room temp is about 25/30 very cold room.

right now on idle I'm 18c, also using speed fan and its the same temps showing, you got me worried now lol thermal margin is 55/60c, first clock was AMD overdrive same temps then I used catalyst and same results, also my max tdp on this board is 95.0 watts. currently running 1.225

stress testing and same results rock solid, maybe its ok.

What does it say for the TPIN temperatures on HWMonitor?

Also, you mean GHz, not MHz

.

MuddyPaws · 20 May 2016 at 18:33

thrm value 16c min 12c max 22c, tpin 0 is same tpin 1 46c value min 46 max 49, tpin 2 30/30/31c

fx6300 package temps are 17/12/25c

I found open hardware monitor best for fx chips and also your temps are wrong as real temps will not show till 35c+

If you look at the fx overclocking guide on here in the cpu section, i wrote quite a bit about them.

I use this ibt avx, by runningit at high for 20 rounds.

Go from here to the last pages and it will show some things.

It'll be TPIN 1 you need to look at, AMD CPUs don't have any temp sensors on the chip and relies on the temp sensor on the socket. Sadly software will usually need to estimate the CPU temp with this.

I have uploaded another pic with the software you suggest, BTW you guys arte awesome. thanks for the help.
