Hi, I just built my 2nd rig, on my first I managed from 3.5 to 4.2ghz on a haswell 4670k, I made my 2nd build an AMD ryzen for the more cores etc for multitasking and gaming, my cpu is the ryzen 5 1600, I just had a go at a very quick overclock by setting the cpu voltage to 1.4, as that's roughly what I've read up on people using for high over clocks, bearing in mind the turbo on this is 3.6ghz anyway , when I manually tapped in 3.6ghz using the multi it won't even boot to the BIOS, so I keep having to clear cmos and reset , any sort of help or tips as to why it won't even bios boot at 3.6ghz? As I've heard they are overclocking to 3.8 ish on a stock cooler and I'm using a cooler master 120 lite , many thanks in advance :)
