Hi, when i occed my fx 6100 at 3,8 ghz, i did prime 95 test(max temp 58)
Voltage was 1,31.
I turned off C6,cool and quiet,turbo etc... (bios is updated)
Everything was good but when i turned OFF PC and then turned it ON i got Bluescreen .
When i just restarded pc it was okay.(Btw sorry for terrible english :X)
my settings : (4ghz)
Ai Overclock Tuner - Manual
CPU Ratio - 20
AMD Turbo CORE Technology - Disabled
CPU Bus Frequency - 200
PCIe Bus Frequency - 100
Memory Frequency - auto
CPU/NB Frequency - auto
HT Link Speed - auto
CPU Spread Spectrum - Disabled
PCIe Spread Spectrum - Disabled
EPU Power Saving Mode - Disabled
CPU & NB Voltage - Manual mode
CPU Manual Voltage - 1,32
CPU/NB Manual Voltage -Auto
Rest of Voltages is auto... I also disabled c6, cool and quiet and these things.
When i increase voltage on 1,35-1,36 it is stable but temps are high(35 just in windows without load) I have gelid tranquillo cooler. I watched lot of videos on youtube and guys could push it at 4ghz easily.
Am I so bad in overclocking or just bad CPU ?
Btw this is default settings:

Take manual control of your NB ... no more than 1.2v. You are likely to be good at 1.15v (or less) as bumping the IMC/NB on Bulldozer/Piledriver does not have the same benefits as the Denebs/Ath-IIs.

In addition to disabling Turbo, be certain that any 'core performance boost' is also disabled (it's essentially the same thing). Also -- even though your VCore is set at 1.32v verify via another utility that your motherboard is not boosting above that level. Some OEM motherboards are infamous for over-volting AMD processors at load.

Use HWMonitor instead of CoreTemps, too ... and I would suggest using the stability test in AOD instead of Prime. You may also use OCCT (which is essentially Linpack) which has additional stressing tools...

thanks for reply, btw my bsod is 0x00000050(0xFFFFFFA800B4000000,0x0000000000,0xfff f8800A97461E,0x000000000002) (i heard it can be something with ram?)
ALSYSIO64.sys

" You are likely to be good at 1.15v (or less) as bumping the IMC/NB on Bulldozer/Piledriver does not have the same benefits as the Denebs/Ath-IIs." sry im new in overclocking so i dont understand what is IMC? :(



so i reset cmos and im at default settings now... and still getting same bsod when i turn on my pc... then i restart it and everything is ok .. :(

also u were right about "Some OEM motherboards are infamous for over-volting AMD processors at load." I set voltage at 1,35 but at full load it takes 1,38 how can i turned it off?


 
NB = North Bridge
IMC = Integrated Memory Controller

The NB on an AMD processor is not like the old-style north bridges of the past. It's essentially the connection from your processor to your RAMs via the 'IMC.'

As far as the over-volting goes it is not a concern as long as you identify the amount, and it is consistent over each voltage level. AMD VCore volt levels typically run in +/- 0.0125v increments. So, if your over-volt is +0.025v (2 levels) to 1.375v, you simply drop your VCore 2 levels (to 1.325v), and at load you are running 1.35v ...

so im at 3,8 now at 1,28V and looks stable for now BUT... cpu temp is 63 and core temp is 51(100 percent load) :/ i have 4 fans in case with gelid tranquillo
i have m5a97 evo r2(lot of users with that MOBO are at 4ghz easily)
i think 51c under load is "ok" but cpu temp is pretty high ... any help pls?
