hello mam and sir i just want to ask if i can make my fx 6300 3.5ghz OC to 4 or 4.2ghz with this motherboard???is it safe??? or what is the safe OC for this processor using this mobo?

im reading a lot of reviews on this mobo and i dont know what is the truth on them all...some say it cannot go to 4 or 4.2ghz but some say it can and also i see a video that some's usig this processor and mobo make it to 4.2ghz...but i dont know if that is safe..
also i read that it has a 4+2 power phase...........

specs:
fx 6300
m5a97 le r2.0
kingston hyper x 2x4gb 1600mhz
vs650w corsair
r7 250 1gb gddr5

Don't use fsb unless you're entirely aware of what you're doing.
Stick to the multiplier & I would suggest a max of 4ghz on stock voltages on that board without any extra vrm cooling - the board is good for 140w tdp so it'll handle it easily. I wouldn't go above 3.8ghz with a stock cooler - buy something better if available.
This will give you a decent performance boost over stock - bear in mind the turbo function only runs 2 or 3 cores at max speed not all 6.

sir is it ok to turn off the turbo mode of this processor and OC it equals to the turbo mode without changing the voltage??what i know in my previous processor a4 5300 when i on the turbo mode it bcomes from 3.4 to 3.6 ....and the voltage from 1.392 increases to 1.456 i think,,but when i turn it off it becomes 1.392 and i OC it to 4ghz with default voltage and it is stable....im thinking if it the same with this processor????

so increasing the FSB is safe in this motherboard even if it increase the ram too??my ram is 1600mhz and in my previous processor i set the ram at 1333mhz to be able to make the processor from 3.4 to 4ghz.....cause my previous processor supported ram is 1600mhz and it is not unlock
