So I'm overclocking my AMD FX 6300 to 4.5-4.6ghz and using cooler master evo 212 cooler with two fans on it. Im getting a stable overclock, but when I go and play bf4 I'm getting stuttering in the game sometimes. Im running the game on ultra and getting temps of 50-60c tops. Plan on getting liquid cooler soon. i have a amd r9380 strix 4gb if that helps.

That is about as far as I would go on AMD. My personal max on Intel is 1.375v as well.

Try dropping your overclock down 100mhz. Always safer to sacrifice 100mhz than to add more voltage.

I have personally gotten stuttering when my overclocked cpu isn't being applied with enough voltage. I upped the voltage slightly and the problem has always gone away immediately.

Just make sure you aren't crossing the danger threshold for your voltage.
