Hello I was wondering how do I enable turbo mode in bios I got a asus sabertooth 990fx. Also does this mean i apply the thermal paste good I use a pea sized dot and pressed it down in made sure it covered half of the cpu before I tighten down the heatsink

Turbo mode is usually on by default if you didn't touch any of the BIOS settings. You can always just reset the BIOs settings to default and turbo mode should already be on. Only reason why it would be off is if you're overclocking or don't want it.

3800Mhz is the middle turbo of the FX-6300. It goes like this, 3.5Ghz stock, 3.8Ghz turbo lvl 1, 4.1Ghz turbo lvl 2. Can you run a stress program such as prime95 to see what the frequency is at?

It is running at 3.8Ghz, as 3.8Ghz is an approximation. You should go into the BIOS and check if it is enabled. Turbo core, turbo mode, anything that's similar to that.

Possibly, I don't have your motherboard so I can't really check.

Turbo core on a 6 core CPU will stick to mid-level when more than 2 cores are loaded. If just 2 cores are loaded, it should go up to the max.

Try using AMD overdrive and do all 3 stress tests on just 2 cores. 1 minute should be long enough to just observe load/speed changes. They should throttle up to max. try different cores and see what happens.
