Hi everyone!
So, for my first real gaming pc my cpu isn't that great as it is an amd fx 6300 and I was wondering if I could overclock it to increase it's performance, but I have a stock cooler installed, so I wanted to know, is there a way I could overclock it without heating it up too high?
 
Solution
Keep voltage at stock. If you have a good chip, you could squeeze quite a lot. My old AMD-FX 6300 could go up to 4.3Ghz without raising voltage.
