Hello everyone!
Be forewarned: I'm still a noob, I've been reading and researching to remedy that - but it's a work in progress. So any tips and tricks are welcomed.
I've run into some trouble, trying to overclock my CPU.
I tried to follow this guide, somewhat - though obviously to a lesser extent. However my BIOS is somewhat different:

First of all, it seems like my mb doesn't come with an XMP profile. Only Auto and Manual.
Secondly, using the EZ Overclocking wizard feature results in blackscreen, and me having to reset to defaults.
I'd like to OC through the bios manually, but I can't seem to find either the multiplier or the XMP profile.
Any thoughts? What am I doing wrong?
Thank you!
