Hey guys, so i decided to make a budget system mostly to play Dota 2 and Diablo 3 with a friend at his house and I am trying to overclock the CPU but i cant manage to raise even 100mhz.
The system won't even post, it tries to start and after several failed attempts at posting it tells me overclock failed. I've installed the latest F7 bios (cause I had F5 and it was not overclocking then either). Once I even had to clear CMOS to be able to boot.
All I did was raise multi from x32 to x33 (i've tried x35 and x40 also) but it just cant manage anything. I also tried to increase voltage to 1.2v but it didnt make any difference... Temps are around 30c idle, 45c load at stock... so no problem there.
Could it be a bad motherboard? Or did i miss something written in the few quick guides i read on the internet?
