Hello.

I'm trying to overclock my CPU to 5ghz. But I've turned off the power saving features, set the volt to 1.46, set the llc to 75%, and left the HTC LINK and NB on auto.

Please help.

SPECS:
AMD FX 9590
Gigabye GA-970A-UD3P
Corsair 760i

As mentioned above the motherboard doesn't even support that cpu. The 9590 is just a factory oc'd 8350(probably why it even posts on that board) so it may not even be capable of going higher on a supported board. The was a video on youtube showing a 970 krait(also doesn't support the 9590) catching fire running a 9590, but it looks like it was made private.
