Hey guys,
I'm new here and to overclocking in general. I have read lots of threads on here and elsewhere that have given me an idea on how to overclock, but everything I've tried results in a bios message at start up saying that overclock has failed and to redo settings, or I've also gotten into Windows, only to have it freeze or result in a memory-related BSOD. So I'm guessing I'm not adjusting the memory voltage/clock speed properly, but I have no idea how that corresponds to CPU frequency. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
System specs:
AMD 1090t BE
Asus M5A87 mobo
Corsair H80 cooling system
PNY Optima 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) PC3-10666 1333MHz DDR3 Desktop DIMMs Memory Kit
OCZ ModXStream Pro 600W Modular High Performance Power Supply 80plus
Standard American Megatrends BIOS
If you need more info let me know. Also, I'm not near my PC right now (I'm at work) so I couldn't give specific values that I've edited in my BIOS.
EDITED to add PSU.
EDITED to change mobo from M5A97 to M5A87
