Overclocking is done from the bios

First of all to overclock your cpu , you need no programs as it is done from the bios. There you will see the overclocking menu. And you will see the cpu base clock. It will be 100mhz then you will have the multiplier. To overclock , you must increase the multiplier. if the multiplier is 31, you cpu speed will be 3100mhz(3.1 ghz). it is done by multiplying the multiplier and the base clock. Dont change the base clock( you may damage your system if you do so) but change the multiplier. Change it to certain value then check for stability. if it is stable you can increase it more otherwise you must increase the voltage of you cpu( i dont recommend it to newbies). your best bet is to put it at the last stable value.

How to know when its stable, and what happens if its unstable?

Jaco3401 · Feb 24, 2014

Can use intel burn test, occt or prime95. If it crashes it isn't stable. If it isn't stable with the multiplier you set, either lower it or raise your voltage. There are some really good guides to OC your chip on toms if you check the forums
