My PC has been a bit slow recently despite doing the usual Windows related procedures to clean it up a little in order to make it more snappy, so now I would like to overclock my FX-9370 and maximise the performance using the Advances CPU Core Features in the BIOS.
The CPU was running at 4.4 for a while now, but I've decided to up it to 4.6 in hope of making things a bit faster and improving FPS in gaming, currently struggling to get 40+ on Watch Dogs. YES, I am aware of it being poorly optimised for PC, and this isn't a priority, but when I start the game FPS maintains between 45-55, then steadily drops to 35-45, which as I'm sure you all know isn't adequate for driving. For the record, I'm using an XFX 7990.
First of all I'd like to know an appropriate Voltage for my CPU at 4.6, as I've been warned 1.54 is a bit high. Furthermore I need some advice on what I should Disable in the Advanced CPU Core Features.
Features listed:
CPU Performance Boost
CPU Unlock
Cool & Quiet
C1E Support
SVM
CPU Core Control
Core C6 State
HPC Mode
APM
Thanks for taking some time out of your busy lives and reading this
Peace XD
