Hello all. Here are my specs and my overclocking for a new budget build. Hopefully this will help and maybe I can get some input from the community on this build which seems very solid for the cost. My goal was conservative overclocking.
Asus M5A78L-M LX PLUS
AMD FX-6300
MSI R9 270x 2gb
EVGA 600B
4gb Crucial Ballistix
CoolerMaster hyper 212 evo
One 120mm case fan
Im currently running the Fx-6300 overclocked at 4400MHz with auto putting Bus at 200MHz and stock 1.425v. Under a full load in Prime95 for an hour or so cpu temp doesn't exceed 50c and my mobo stays around 54-55c. Ive been able to get the R9 270x to overclock at 1180 core 1500 memory and be stable for ulta playing wow and long sessions of Heaven on ultra with 4x anti and 1440-900 resolution. i did increase the Power % to +20 and +6v. Its stable here but if I go to 1200MHz core I get crashes even with a +13v jump so i decided to back off. Temp held fine under 65c with moderate fan adjustments. My fan doesn't run over 60% until I reach over 70c. So its pretty quiet, All in all I think for the price of the mobo ive been able to do some decent overclocking without high temps, but thats why i got a good cpu cooler. for $35 on sale its a must have if you want to fiddle at all. : ) Any questions please reply as i appreciate input.
edit - oh and i agree those temps are way too hot for your mobo.
