Hi

When I go to overclock the CPU inside of my bios I get a black screen everytime.

I tried 3.6ghz on stock voltage and it never worked. Just straight into a black screen. (3.6ghz on ryzen masters works and is stable)

So I tried the same 3.6ghz but with 1.3V same happened again.

I had to pull the battery to reset the CMOS. Does anyone have an idea on what is going on?

I can run the motherboard in game boost mode and it gives me 3.2ghz. But I would like to run it higher without using the software.

Thanks

OC is silicon lottery. Follow the guide:

OC +100MHZ each step and run benchmark for stability. With what you say I think you will stop around 3.4 and 3.5 will be unstable.
