go to bios , change the multiplier to the max, set the voltage to manual, change the FSB up 20mhz each time and test if it will work or not, if it fails to boot, UP the voltage for the cpu.

 

programs you should use to monitor cpu core temps - realtemp, hwmonitor, core temp (any1 is fine)

 


programs you should use to test for stability - prime95, intelburntest, occt, orthos
(anyone is fine, i prefer runnin prime95 or intelburntest)

 

your max core temp for ur cpu is 100C, at 3.5ghz you should be around 60C-70C for stock cooling (load temps)
you using stock cooler right? also what case?
and ur PSU is fine.
