HI, ill explain what im trying to do first.
So in single threaded games like skyrim my fx 6300 wont boost leaving me with under 60fps so what I did was I went into bios disabled boost technology and booted it up to the 4.1GHZ it was meant to run at then it came to voltages, after doing some research I needed to be some where around the 1.35 to 1.4V so I tried all of them and still getting the black screen or a screen freeze but what I noticed was my fps in game wet right up to 150 but I just don't know how to keep it running at 4.1GHz without the boost being enabled.

I hardly know anything about overclocking at all that's what seems to be the problem.

SPECS:
fx 6300
cooler master gx 650w
2x western 1TB
asrock n68c-gs fx
coolermaster 212 evo

im getting 22C idle and 38C in game with standard clock in games such as crisis 3 and Battlefield 3

That board does not have a strong VRU so keep your voltages near stock.
You won't be able to get a high OC, but a moderate boost is easily doable.

At 1.40v with the same cooler I was recently able to get 4.4GHz stable on the FX 6300 and keep the temperatures fairly low.
OFC YMMV.

If your BIOS supports it, turn AMD APM off. You can leave cool & quiet, C1E and C6 on. These did not impact our OC.

Disable Turbo Core altogether.

Give CPU NB a small voltage bump, around the 1.25-1.28v range. (* Not Motherboard North Bridge, CPU North Bridge.)

Set your CPU vCore to 1.4.
Start at 4.2GHz, run a stability test for at least 30-60 minutes. If it passes, bump the multi up to 4.3GHz and repeat. Bump it up to 4.4GHz and repeat.
Continue until it fails.
When it fails, bump it back down 1 notch and run a stability test for at least 4 hours, with 8-24 hours being the preferred test duration.

Above all, watch your temps and keep the system cool. Airflow is important. And maybe look at getting a few of those small forged copper heatsinks from EnzoTech for your VRUs.

:O You got an n68 board to run an FX chip?
Use HWmonitor..It will tell you the core temps.
It would be best to keep them under 55c.
I doubt there will be any VRM problems as the chip is really just a triple-core.

hello!i now the post is old!but i hope someone can help me too!i have the same MB and CPU,i tried to overclock FX6300 from 3.5Ghz to 4.0-4.4,but everytime i try to run Prime95 to stress,everything froze or WIn10 "BSOD" and restart,i don't know what i do wrong,however i wrote everything on OC Tweaker in BIOS,i want to know what to turn on and what off,or enable or disable:
overclock mode [auto]
cpu frequency (mhz) [200]
PICE frequency (mhz) [100]
Boot failure guard [enabled]
boot failure guard count [3]
cpu/ldt spread spectrum [enabled]
PCIE spread spectrum [enabled]
sata spread spectrum [enabled]
CPU active core control [all cores]
AMD turbo core technology [auto]
AMD C-state support [enabled]
AMD APM [enabled]
processor maximum frequency x31.5 6300mhz
north bridge maximum frequency x31.0 6200mhz
processor maximum voltage 1.5500 V
Multiplier/voltage change [auto]
HT bus speed [auto]
HT bus width [auto]
----------------------------------------------
memory configuration
memory clock [auto]
dram voltage [auto]
----------------------------------------------
chipset settings
chipset voltage [auto]
THANKS!
