Overclocking FX 6100
Last response: in Overclocking
Hey, so I am trying to overclock my FX 6100 black edition 3.3Ghz
My specs.
Fx 6100
Evega gtx560
PNY 1333 DDR3 4GB x3
ASRock 870 Extreme3 R2.0
530 watt PSU Rosewill Green 80 plus
stock cooling on cpu, plan to upgrade in next few days.
basically im having a hard time finding a stable setup.
Ive done a few things. Using the built in bios OC tweaker causes the computer to crash and get a memory dump (blue screen). Next I started tweakin with things manually.
Ive tried increasing bus by a small margin then decreasing NB and RAM and then increasing multiplier accordingly and it just has been unsuccessful.
So far is leaving the bus at 200 and just increasing the multiplier on the cpu and decreasing speed of ram works the best and increasing the voltage on the cpu by 1 notch. But the issue I have been having is that the comp doesnt crash to a memory dump but instead it just freezes when the processor is under fair amount of load.
Any suggestion?

You should be able to get 4Ghz out of that easily.
I'd start by resetting the bios to default settings.
Bump the multiplier up to 17.5 without adjusting voltage and reboot.
What you need to do then is test for stability and temperature.
Download and run "Intel Burn Test" and watch your temperatures with HW Monitor.
Your cores should not exceed 60*C, and if you see your clock speed lower then you're throttling.
There's a good chance if you're on the stock cooler, that you're simply getting too hot to overclock. If you can get the 17.5X to be stable, then keep pushing it up and tossing voltage at it for it to be stable and under 60*C.
