I have a gigabyte GA 78lmt usb3 mobo and want to buy a fx 6300 can i overclock it to 4.5 ghz on my gigabyte mobo i want to do so because i am planning to buy a gtx970 gpu and some people said there will be bottlenecking issue until i overclock fx6300 to 4.5 ghz. Any cpu cooler required after overclocking...? If yes then tell me a good but cheap cpu cooler. I use these shopping sites

Flipkart.com
Snapdeal.com
Amazon.in
 
It's not the greatest motherboard for overclocking, but I think you will be able to achieve what you are hoping to. Not all chips are going to be able to reach 4.5GHz though. Each chip is a little different.

You will definitely need an aftermarket cooler to overclock that thing anywhere close to 4.5GHz. A very nice low budget cooler is the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo. But Amazon.in is the only website you have listed that has it in stock.
