I have a G3258 with a Asus B85M-G R2.0. I overclocked it to 4.2ghz at 1.100V in manual voltage mode and found it to be stable. For some reason my motherboard does not have adaptive voltage as an option, so I decided to try offset voltage. The base voltage for the the cpu at 3.2ghz is 1.031V, so I set an offset of +0.069V. The computer booted up into windows fine but when I run Aida64 stability test, the voltage stays at 1.031V and stays at 3.2ghz even though it is under full load. Is there some settings in the bios I missed, or did I set up the offset wrong.

Make sure that the Bios is updated to support your CPU G3258. Save all you settings before exit.

Yes I have latest Bios and I am saving. I already overclocked with the manual voltage mode, I just need to know HOW or IF I did the offset voltage correctly.

You need to enable EXTREME OV (the default is disabled)

It did not do anything, it still runs at stock 3.2ghz and 1.031V when stress testing.
