I tried to Overclock my CPU after research, but I failed.

d1versify · Nov 2, 2014

Evening,

I would really love if a kind guy would guide me for 10 minutes (isn't that the time required for just a simple Cpu overclock?) through Skype or any other messenger if possible!
I tried myself and the computer was freezing and i shit myself so i restored everything back to normal

Please anyone?

I think you would get more help if you provided more details? What Mobo/CPU are you working with?

neograndizer :

sure!

a gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 rev 1.2
AMD FX 8350
Coolermaster hyper 212 evo
Corsair CX 600 builder

I would be more than happy to help!

Alright, so lets start off with the basics.

When I was new to overclocking, I was a total newbie, I was indeed using a program to overclock my cpu.

However, I later on learned you need to use the bios.

So here we go.

1) Enter the bios (Check your mobo manual on how to enter the bios)

2) Enter the bios advanced settings (if you have that option)

3) Find your way to the cpu voltages, they should be named vcore, etc

4) Set your cpu voltages to manual (if you have a setting for manual/auto

5) Find the cpu clock settings, should be like a number such as 2.3ghz, etc

6) Change that to the clock speed you want, start off with like an extra .1ghz so 2.3ghz to 2.4ghz (keep in mind I'm making up 2.3ghz your computer may be faster so don't just look for that number)

7) increase the voltage by .06 so 1.300v should become 1.360v

exit out and your done.

Sorry if this wasn't detailed, I would need pictures, and more detailed instructions of what you changed etc

I did some things via youtube guides, but every video on youtube suggested different settings. So i didn't really know where to conclude. You think you could assist me through skype ?

Guide by Glory here is pretty straight forward. I have only exp in Intel OC but unless there are some "details" like I have on X99 Deluxe board then it's complete.

How far should i go for, with an aircooling like the Coolermaster hyper 212 evo?
And what would the voltages be for that value? I mean you told me to raise by 0.6 for that value. But how about going for 4,4ghz for example? Or is too much? (Keep in mind as well I have a really small and hot case with bad ventιlation and that i live in a warm country)

And what about these AMD C6 and AMD Cool n Quiet. Im asking because some people changed them on some videos, while others didn't

neograndizer · Nov 2, 2014

I only have an Intel and never touched AMD. So I really can't help there.

However, same model # CPUs will not react in the same way. Which is why they're general guidelines and not an exact science to OC. This is why there are so many different ways for OC'ng. One might work, while another will not. Unfortunately, you need to know the threshold of the chip and not to exceed them when tweaking and trialing the OC. Voltage, temps, etc. have to be monitored while going through the entire process. It took me a few weeks to get a stable OC and I had to do a lot of tweaking and monitoring during that time.

There's really no simple way except following a set of steps and seeing whether they work or not on the CPU.

See that's why im confused all the time and cant make it. One guys just gives me a guide and another guy tells me thereis not a standard procedure. So what I do now? hehe
