i have an i7 38203.6ghz on a p9x79 motherboard from asus with a seidon 120v aio cooler on it
I want to overclock this card but i am unable to do so through the bios settings model 3408
Can somebody help me in this matter as all tutorials i have watched are of latest gen i7s and im a newbie to overclocking
Please ?

That CPU is partially unlocked. You can set the multipier up to 43, and any overclock higher than 4.3GHz would require raising the BCLK, which usually maxes out at 103-105.
