Multi-million dollar Cheyenne supercomputer auction ends with $480,085 bid — buyer walked away with 8,064 Intel Xeon Broadwell CPUs, 313TB DDR4-2400 ECC RAM, and some water leaks
Overclock my fx 6300 to 4.3 and the temp is still 31-37c after 20minutes of prime 95

lol why? Are you measuring the core temp or the socket temp?
What cooler and board are you using, also 20 minutes of Prime isn't that long. If you are using a water cooler it often takes a while for the temps to raise and lower, on air the change is much faster.

My cooler is hyper evo 212 and mobo gigabyte ga970a ud3p and I'm measuring the Cpu temp and package temp

Haha I wish I live in the north east of England and msi afterburner and hwmonitor it think it's called that

In the north east it's like the north pole lol, just overclocked to 4.4 and got a error 5 mins into it, the minimum temp was 36

That`s about right then, most FX based chips will over clock on average 800Mhz without the need for any core voltage change to the cpu and with a decent air cooler sit at 37c to 40c under a prime 95 test.
Once you start to increase the core voltage at 4.5Ghz then things will start to heat up a bit more rapidly Jack.
You may be able to get the cpu up to 4.6Ghz but it will require around 1.46v to 1.48v dpending on how good the bit of silicone substrate the cpu was formed on.
On water you can push it a liitle bit more. but once your at the 1.5v range and slightly above at 1.53v it gets a bit crazy if trying it with an air cooler.
Just don`t hit 1.6v Jack. keep it just around 1.5v or if you can. If you intend to try to get a bit more out of the FX chip.
At that point I would recommend, you consider using a water cooling loop though.
I have seen on water FX 6300`s running at 1Ghz overclock. That`s about the max I have seen an FX pushed.
It just depends also on how good your motherboard is and extra case fans as well as a water cooling cpu loop.

You may have to settle for 4.3Ghz then jack.
If the voltage bump works and stabilizes the system in a prime 95 test.
800Mhz OC is fair and expected on avarage with FX cpus.
If still unstable, your going to have to back off the OC by 100Mhz and test again for stability.

The voltage fluctuates slightly on all Fx chips.
It depends on how you have it set up Jack.
On mine I keep it at a maximum frequency of 4.5Ghz.
To do this you have to enter your bios and make sure cool and quiet options are disabled.
And that the turbo cpu core feature is also disabled in the bios.
The voltage will drop if the cpu Idles at windows desktop when the cpu is not put under load like with prime 95 running.
As the core speed drops so does the voltage if the two settings are set as enabled in the bios.
If you disable both the core speed stays at it`s maximum setting, and the voltage manually set in the bios Jack ok.

I have already disabled them shaun, I managed to get it to 4.4mhz stable, when I get in from work I'm going to try and get it to 4.5 then settle with that, I still have a bit of head room it's at 1.450v at the moment. Do you think I should try and push a little bit higher?

Like I said about 1Ghz is the maximum I have pushed one too, or should I say dare too.
It might start to bork out on you no matter what you do to the voltage.
The first sign of that is it does not even get to windows desktop but crashes while windows is loading most of the time.
Be happy with 900Mhz or 1Ghz overclock.
What are the temps at under a prime 95 @ 4.4Ghz ?
In any case it`s a win just keep an eye on the temps when running for a few hours.
At 4.5Ghz you may see the heat rocket on the cpu core. so be careful, try bumping the core up by 0.25Mv if not stable.
And test for stability. If not another 0.25Mv
And like said try and keep it around 1.5v or a little bit more if you have to 1.525v just don`t hit 1.6v
Things may get a bit crazy heat wise.
The choice is then yours if you can get it to 4.5Ghz stable at about 1.5v or slightly bellow. 1.475v.
