Hello. I have a phenom 9600 BE in an asus M3a78-em motherboard. I want to be able to overclock but I am having a hard time understanding the bios setup for the OC profiles. For example, I cant specifically set voltages...my only options are like +50mv and +100mv but no manual settings...does anyone have this board overclocked or know about this type of bios? Maybe someone could go as far as posting the right settings for a similar OC that I could copy from. Anything would be lovely. Thanks!

you can't really manually set your voltage on this board. what you have to do is check the hardware monitor in the bios for the vcore, then up the voltage in 50 mv invrements. for your reference 50mv=about .05v

Right, I only can go up to +150 if I remember right. Does anyone have any advice for this board + the phenom 9600 as far as how to do it goes? Ive tried many times and failed. Im starting to think this board simply does not like to overclock.
