Could anybody share the stable overclock of FX-4300 at Stock cooler
I have FX-4300 (black). I overclocked to 4.4Ghz with below settings on stock cooler:
My MoBo is cheap 3+1 phase Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2. PSU is Corsair VS550.
The temp rise was 5 degrees only at full load (thermal margin reached 18). Benchmarks (Geekbench and AMD Overdrive) improved by 20% but Rise of Tomb Raider had no effect at all.
Overall the system is very stable and fast.
