Hey everyone looking for some help overclocking my new rig.
I have AMD Phenom II X4 3.2Ghz 955 Black edition, with an Asus M4N68T-M2 V2 motherboard. Looking to try overclocking it. Because it has the Nvidia chipset, I can't run AMD Overdrive from Windows so I have to do everything from Bios. I find Bios is confusing because it has tons of options. Most people mention the multiplier, voltage etc, but I have about 4 different areas for voltage. My ram is 1 4GB chip of DDR3-1333 memory.
Does anyone have suggested settings? I'm going to get a water cool device like the Corsair H50 or H60. Someone in another forum mentioned 3.8ghz by doing 19x multipler, 250mhz and 1.4 volts. For some reason anything over 205Mhz my system won't boot it says overclocking failed, but maybe it's due to wrong voltage? Just wondering if anyone has tips where to go.
I'm at work and should have posted this at home so I don't have the list of the types of voltage it asks for. I remember something about CPU voltage, and then there's a HT voltage. Can write the list tonight but wondering if theres somewhere with recommended settings. Thanks!
