Hey there!

Please tell us the Settings you did set in the bios :)

- BCLK
- Multiplier
- CPU Core Voltage (VCore)

And how are your Temps looking? Did you check on those?
Try Using a Program like HWMonitor

Only changed the CPU frequency to 4.4 GHZ and everything else was set to auto. What do think is my best options to change to get a stable overclock of 4.4 GHZ?
