Hello guys so i been wanting to play GTA V but to do this i need to get my CPU to at least 4.4ghz from 3.2ghz. I have been trying to overclock it manualy but i failed, i got blue screen. Then i tried the OC GENIE method and it did overclock but yet again it failed and i got blue screen, but why?
Please guys help me with this overclock :p i am really desperate to play GTA V on my PC...

This are my Specs:
HDD: 500GB Western Digital
CPU: Intel Pentium Dual Core G3258 3.2Ghz
GPU: EVEGA GTX 750 Ti 2Gb
PSU: Cooler Master Semi Modular 550W Gold 80+
RAM: Hyperx 4Gb 1600Mhz DDR3 x2
Cooling: Corsair H60 Hydro Series High Performance Liquid Refurbished
Motherboard: MSI Z97 PC Mate


PS: Some one guide me how to overclock properly because i think that i can atleast get that 4.4ghz, or am i wrong and i need better components?

Hey RastaManHG,

There's a specific guide on overclocking your cpu. The average overclock for your cpu lies somewhere in 4.4ghz. However dont forget that an average oc is an average between lower speeds and higher speeds. Your chip may vary well be one of the chips that has a max overclock below 4.4Ghz.

That said this article explains a lot and guides you through overclocking that chip. This guy reaches 4.0Ghz safely. He also was able to get to 4.5Ghz and 4.7Ghz but at those speeds he was pushing the voltages and the limits of this cpu. In your case I'd settle on what the cpu can do... or if possible 4.0Ghz - 4.2Ghz. Afterall, you don't wanna have the chip randomly die on you.

Here's the guide, refer to the last page for his overclock...

Here's the guide, refer to the last page for his overclock settings. There's three pages. http://www.overclockersclub.com/guides/intel_pentium_g3258_oc_guide/

If all else fails, get a new cpu ;) like the 4790K http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117369
Sure its not the cheapest price, but for a cpu thats a pretty good price range, sure beats the price of $500 when I bought my used 980x. That 980x is one beast of a cpu though... I'm not complaining lol

This guide really helped me to understand how overclocking works, i managed to get it to 4.2Ghz from 3.5Ghz with max 76 degrees Celcius! and its stable. thanks a lot m8. now i hope i will be able to play GTA V

I'm glad it helped ;) yeah GTA V should be playable... your graphics card is not too bad... and while it most likely wont be smooth at highest settings on high resolutions... low to medium settings should do fine on 1080p and much better on 720p...
