My specs:
-Amd Fx 6300
-Asus R9 270x
-G.Skill Ripjaw 8gb 1866mhz
-CM N520 cooler
-Asus M5a97 Le. R2.0
-Antec 650w psu(forgot the name)
-Old but gold Thermaltake Xaser V(5 fans 2out,3in)

Can u guys give me a stable or good settings for it, because I overclocked it at 4.5 ghz but it crashes when I stress test with prime95. By the way I overclocked it to 4.3ghz stable but I want more, I'm not sure with my cpu voltage, I have it on 1.43v I think and I'm scared. Sorry with my questions and grammar but can u guys pls give me a stable settings for 4.5ghz? This is my first time having a rig and overclocking.....

it is not possible to give stable max overclock settings for any given processor, because all the processors are different, the boards are different, the power supplies are different,ram..; so the max attainable speed will be different.
There are No Guarantees! If you get a slow one its unfixable, I'm afraid.

It could be done by air easily, but you still would need an aftermarkt cooler. A good one. Although, it still all depends on your cpu. Some are good, some are bad, it's like a sillicon lottery. No cpu is the same. 1.43v is quite high and i think it reached it's limit. I wouldn't go any further, because your temperatures would be really too high. For 24x7 use most will recommend below 1.475 vCore.

I had the same motherboard and cpu, just like you, about a year ago when i switched to intel. I was able to achieve 4.5ghz at 1.3v if im not mistaken. Like i said, it's all about the cpu.

I have an FX6300, Asrock 970 extreme 4 mobo, 8 gigs g-skill ripjaws ram, Thermaltake 600w power supply, Saphire Radeon 7870 , Hyper 212 evo heatsink with a push/pull configuration, and 3 other 120mm fans in my case.The fastest "stable" speed I've been able to achieve at "safe" temps is 4.4GHz.@ 1.37 volts. I can get it to run faster with higher voltages, but the temps start going through the roof. hope this helps.
