I did my first OC on FX 6300 followed by a YouTube guide :D

I didn't run a primetest but after playing WoW for like a hour my core temps jumped up to 51. I want downlock it to 4.1ghz only, how much voltage would I need? mine is up at 1,4v 21.5 multiplier with some settings off

Ok thx guys phewww, I noticed that when I installed hyper evo 212 the fan points toward on the top of case instead to the exhaust fan on the back, is that bad position? because it was such a pain for me to turn it to different side but thought it didn't matter
 


I don't know what you mean by "fan points toward top of case" - there is only one spot the heat sink can go.

I'm sorry for my bad wording, i'll try to explain better. I installed the heatsink but you can install it on different way so the fan pointing toward back of my exhaust fan. I read recently that it should look like this https://www.google.se/search?q=hyper+evo+212+install&biw=1920&bih=979&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=F76oVJGyNOT4ygP92YLYDg&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ#facrc=_&imgdii=vEcyLcd52tuSyM%3A%3BV3HgsbE0snC1hM%3BvEcyLcd52tuSyM%3A&imgrc=vEcyLcd52tuSyM%253A%3BFPN1-zjPTy0X6M%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fmedia.bestofmicro.com%252FZ%252FV%252F325291%252Foriginal%252Fcooler-master_hyper-212-evo_install-2.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.tomshardware.com%252Freviews%252FLGA-2011-i7-3960X-Air-Overclocking%252C3130-4.html%3B550%3B550

But its like this now https://www.google.se/search?q=hyper+evo+212+install&biw=1920&bih=979&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=F76oVJGyNOT4ygP92YLYDg&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ#facrc=_&imgdii=_&imgrc=-EMsiIb6Nz5kDM%253A%3BwyIctxWDDsrF3M%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fdvtests.com%252Fwp-content%252Fuploads%252F2012%252F12%252FIMG_6526.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.dvtests.com%252Fcooler-master-hyper-t4-test-and-review%252F%253Futm_source%253Drss%2526utm_medium%253Drss%2526utm_campaign%253Dcooler-master-hyper-t4-test-and-review%3B1680%3B1260

Edit: just what I heard that it matters what rotation your heatsink fan pointing at

 


Oh I don't know I have Intel Stock an that faces downward. I would assume it's pointed toward exhaust.
