Help for overclocking the FX-8320

Alexandre Crete · Jan 4, 2014

Hi guys,

I would like to overclock my FX-8320 and i never done that before so i need you guys to give me some hint and advise.

I have a very good knowledge with computer but i never overclocked anything because my computers we're always enough powerful for the things i had to do with.

My rig:

Motherboard: Asus M5A99X rev.2
Processor: AMD FX-8320
Cooler: Corsair H100I push fan configuration
Ram: Corsair Vengence 1600 4go
Power supply: HCG-620M (planning to change for a 1000watts)
Video Card: Powercolor HD7750 ( planning to change for an R9)
PC Case: Aerocooler X1 Predator with 4X140mm Fan (planning to change the case)
Windows 7 64bits

sorry for my bad english
Thanks guys !!
Alexandre

I would suggest going into the bios and changing the multiplier.

nothing with voltage ect no fine tuning ?

Cool you are overclocking a heater and with one of the coldest winters in decades if you were in the states you would have a blast (its very cold).

I would start with avoiding voltages until you hit an unstable point. There's no reason to up the voltages until you have unstable overclocks.

I'm in North of Canada it's about -40celcius

Calnin :

ok so playing with multiplier when i got unstable what i have to do?
Do i need to turn off option in bios or just simply play with the multiplier ( sound too much easy to me ?!)

Calnin · Jan 4, 2014

up multipliers until you hit unstable point or desired point. If the thing is unstable add voltages slowly until you hit stable. At least that's how i think you're suppose to do it.

Ok i just OC my 8320 to 4.57mhz
Ive run Prime95 for 35min got a stable 61celcius on full load no error so far ( yeah just 35min)
I tried OCCT for 10min got a stable 42celcius ?!?!?!
Ive done a cinebench test too

No error at all no crash nothing. What can i do more ?!
