Review on πŸ’ͺ AMD FD6300WMHKBOX FX-6300 Black Edition: 6-Core Processor with Unparalleled Performance by Jamil Fog

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great budget PC build

Very good processor for the price. I have a clock frequency of 4334 MHz, everything is fine. It is not recommended to use the default cooler that comes with it, especially if you intend to overclock. I bought a Cooler Master Hyper TX3, installed a second fan on the cooler and it really does its job. For you overclocking enthusiasts, here are my results: CPU Frequency: 4334MHz, Bus: 216.7, Multiplier: 20.0, VCore Voltage: Increased from 1.224V to 1.33V for 1 hour with no errors, 52 Degrees Celsius (with multiple peaks up to 53). The idle temperature is around 31 degrees Celsius. For those interested in Windows Numbers. Windows Experience Index (Top to Bottom) 7.5 (Overclocked) 7.97.97.97.9 My Build: AMD FX-6300 6-Core Black Edition EVGA GeForce GTX760 FTW with ACX Cooler 4GB GDDR5ASUS M5A97 R2.0 AM3+ AMD 970 SATA 6 Gbps USB 3.0 ATX Motherboard AMDWindows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit Crucial MX100 256GB SATA 2.5" Internal SSDAsus 24x DVD-RW Optical drive DRW-24B1STCorsair Vengeance 16GB (2x 8GB) DDR3 1600MHz DimmsCooler Master HAF 912 CaseCooler Master MegaFlow 200Cooler Master Hyper TX3 - CPU coolerCooler Master Glite V2 550W power supply (locally sourced) Total cost: $1000
