Is that OEM? If so then it's very likely that your overclocking options are simply disabled so you won't be able to overclock. Even if it's not OEM some motherboards simply aren't made with the ability to overclock so be sure to search online before buying

Its not an OEM cause its a custom built PC. When I got it I didnt know anything about Over clocking so I didnt even bother looking. Under my Bios, there is no options about changing the FSB or voltage or anything. This mean I cant Overclock or is there some other way to OC with my Mobo?
