Despite numourous guides I'm struggling to find stability overclocking to 4.0
CPU - AMD 8320 3.5
MoBoard - Gigabyte 990FXA UD3
PSU - 750W
Going off of guides the ratio I'm trying to go for is:
4.0Ghz - 1.400V
but the second I apply any changes my theme downgrades to Aero and dragging windows around becomes clunky and slow, regardless of whether I up or lower the voltage it doesn't seem to fix this and when I restart my system explorer.exe stops responding and requires another restart to fix itself.
is my MoBoard not cut out for OCing? or does anyone have the same/similar setup and has had success with overclocking that can give me a hand?
Any help is greatly appreciated
