Edit: I can't change anything through the bios, it's stuck on auto for everything. Only thing it let's me change is the intel XMP for the ram. Yes I have updated the bios to the latest version. Help?


I'm attempting to overclock My Gskill sniper 2133 Mhz RAM to 2400 Mhz before I attempt to overclock my my A10 7850K. However, I've never overclocked memory before so I'm sailing in uncharted territory. So keep in mind alot of lingo will fly strait over my head, so the simpler the guide the better. I'm using AMD overdrive but I am willing to use another program if there's something better.

My build
RAM:8Gb(2x4Gb) G.Skill Sniper 2133 Mhz
CPU: A10 7850K 3.7 Ghz
Cooling: Corsair H110
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-F2A88X-UP4
GPU: Sapphire R9 290 4GB BF4 Edition
OS: Windows 7 Home premium 64 bit

Which set, there are 3 at least at 2133 one is CL9, then CL10 and a CL11 set.....sort of regardless, set your freq to 2400, raise the first 3 primary timings by 1 i.e. if you have the middle CL 10 set would change the 10-12-12 to 11-13-13 and on the 4th timing raise it by 2 or 31 to 33 , next raise the CPU/NB voltage to 1.25 and then give them a try
 


You're going about this overclocking completely backwards, if you want any solid stability with the CPU overclock you should overclock it first, then Sir, worry about overclocking the memory.
