Hello Everyone,

I have an fx-6300 OC'd to 4.5 GHZ on an msi 970 mobo and a hyper 212 evo. When I run prime95, I do get stable temps and not errors during the test BUT occasionally, when I start/restart my computer, it will occasionally say OC profile has failed. so when I load up the same profile and run prime95 again, it runs fine once again? Is this a serious issue in regards to the OC profile failing?

Hello friend. It sounds like your RAM can't keep up with the overclock of your CPU and tripping a failure on POST. I would lower RAM multiplier 1 point or lower timings as follows

RAM really likes voltage, so increase all the way up to 1.75 (maximum) can help keep them stable. Also, don't set your HT link too high. The 6300 seems to like 2400mhz.

I have overclocked FX for 5 years now and have owned 3 different CPU's. 8320, 8350, and 6300. The best results I get from overclocking are when I go bus speed+ multplier. This is because bus speed overclocks the CPU northbirdge and in turn increases L2 Cache speed = single core performance! Increase the Northbridge frequency to 2400-2600Mhz as well.

My current setup is an 8320 @...
