Out of the box 50 mhz more won't make a difference. But these cards are really easy to overclock even further. Take a look at this guide...

As far as the FX6300, its very easy to overclock but you need a good cooler. Hopefully you picked up an aftermarket cooler as the stock one is noisy and won't allow any overclocking. Something like H60 AIO watercooler or Noctua D-14 will be great and give you 4.3-4.5 GHZ overclock no problem.
