First the overclock has been proven stable.

System specs. :

gtx 650 1gb GDDR5
q6600 oc'd to 2.9 atm, under full load max it went was 53 degrees and vcore is under 1.3 around 1.288.
4gb ram DDR3
I have an 800 wat psu if that matters.

First off, when oc'd to 2.71 i had on 32 multi maps on medium settings around 45-60 fps and it all went rather fluid except occasional drops but those were not noticeable.

Now i oc'd it further to 2.9 and i get around 70-75 fps, made it to go max 75 via user cfg just cus even 60 is the limit here. It drops randomly to like 30-35 just randomly. I can stare at the whole map, move, shoot, nothing, but randomly it would drop. Like i had 5 teamates around me and shooted 3 people far who were shooting me, fps stayed at 55-60 !
Is my ram the problem ?
I know battlefield 4 asks for allot but my previous OC gave me a much better game than this one which should improve, temps normal, all normal. Maybe i should get back a little bit to 2.8 ? But it should be an improvement, not some fps drops experience.

"Proven Stable": What does that mean exactly?

Are you scaling voltage with the overclock? There are ratio's you can follow but its a trial and error kind of thing. Try SLIGHTLY upping the voltage in small increments.

Also that is an ancient CPU. Dont expect much in a modern game like BF4 with that CPU. Its a FIRST GEN quad core.

Also when comparing frames in games, you should only do it in a repeatable testable area. Find a single player campaign location, do a 40 second walk, record frames, and do it again exactly the same way, same level, same route after the overclock. That is how you compare, not randomly jumping in different maps with different player numbers/render areas.

I honestly think you were just in a higher dense area that was harder to render compared to your last session when you did not overclock the cpu. Caspian boarder for instance is very demanding render wise compared to the other maps.

How do i actualy up the core voltage ? And in my case by how much would i ?
Also i know what u're talking bout.

The cpu is shit old and u think i dont know myself in whatever high rendering areas or maps i was, man in whatever map before the last oc it wouldnt random drop to 30, it was a constant 45-60 fps all on medium.

Believe me that was not the case at all. Neither it would go 75-70 fps.
