i currently have:
AMD FX6300
gigabyte 78mlt-s2p motherboard
4gb corsair vengance low profile ram
hyper 212 evo cooler (as of tomorrow).
however, after reading a lot of forums, it has been advised not to overclock on this mobo because of vrm configuration? something about heatsinks or whatever? i have good airflow over the motherboard with 2 80mm fans blowing air across the motherboard to the exhaust 120mm fan so am i ok to overclock? i'm not going crazy and going for 4.8ghz or anything, i think up to a maximum of about 4.2ghz depending on temperatures.
edit: it is either the revision 4.o or 5.x, unsure as to which it is, i'm not able to get to the pc at the moment to check. i think this is important.
edit2: it is the revision 5.x model with 'lower rds mofset design'. does this create benefits when overclocking, cooling running mofsets?
