Hello, I have a dell optiplex 780 and the model of the motherboard is 0C27VV. I tried overclocking my q9550 with electrical tape.
My first attempt was putting electrical tape on the 2nd and 3rd pin under the clip, I followed this thread https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/overclocking-a-c2q-q9550-its-possible.3164926/
didn't worked, when I turned on my pc it showed 2 3 4 lights and the power button was amber.
My second attempt was following this tutorial http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?232678-E8xxx-Q9xx0-FSB-1600-pin-mod
did the same thing as the first attempt.
My third attempt was following this tutorial

it did boot up, but it didn't made any difference.
So what am I doing wrong? I did the exact same thing to all of these 3 but it doesn't seem to work on my optiplex 780.
