5ghz fx 6300 help!!

[noloveformac]

I just got a liquid cooler and i'm looking to hit 5ghz i don't really have to worry about temps much because of the liquid cooler and the fact that the computer is sitting on a AC I have when the collars on i don't go past 30 c 100% loaded running at 4.5ghz but i need help with the settings for 5ghz i can't get it to be stable and i'm afraid to push the voltage up past 1.5 i am new to overclocking but i use it mainly for big renders in programs like blender
Thanks!

Set the CPU at 5 GHz and then start raising voltage very slowly until you get it to be stable enough.
That is how I overclock systems.

First set desired clock then raising voltage till it just hits the spot. And if I see the final voltage is too high, I lower the clocks until it hits its max.
Basically I won't recommend 1.5V in any case.

The chances of you hitting 5 GHz under 1.5V are slim, no matter what you have cooling your CPU. And what cooler are you using?

What are you using to test your CPU overclock?

I Haven't ever used a program i just play games a do a lot of stuff at once until it crashes then i bump up the voltage i have recently downloaded prime 95 tho

You NEED to test your overclock for stability and temps before you go about doing anything else.
