Hello,
I just wanted to ask how exacly do i need to OC and is it possible?
So i watched a few Videos about it and i tired to OC the CPU. I did all things showed in the Vid. but after i saved the settings in the BIOS the PC didn't boot and I needed to clear the CMOS.

My Specs:
AMD Ryzen 5 1600
MSI B350 Gaming Plus
Crucial - 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-2400
Palit Dual 1060 6GB
beQuiet! 400W
 
Solution
Start with a bump to CPU frequency. You may or may not need to up voltage. If you're not booting, you may need additional voltage

What kind of settings were you putting in?

FWIW, you'll probably benefit more (depending on the application) overclocking your memory to 2666MHz+ if possible, opposed to CPU alone.
