Can Someone Help Me OC a 8350 with a 970 Motherboard?

Last time i tried to oc it, my motherboard wont boot and had to clear the bios.

it depends on your chip. Some are able to nail high frequencies, others simply can't. You're probably best off looking up 8350 overclocking guides on youtube

Also, what model mobo is it?

What motherboard, CPU cooler and psu do you have? All are important when overclocking. Some 970 motherboards are good, some are barely able to run a 8350 at stock speeds.

Just follow the same approach as any other overclock... gradually tweak multiplier / frequency / vCore settings and stress test until you hit highest stable OC. Pretty well the universal approach.

Also, in your opening post where you say your OC attempt resulted in your system not being able to boot... means you tried to push your system too far. Again, change things gradually, one notch at a time, and if your mobo supports saving mobo configs, save each time you achieve a stable OC before pushing higher. That way, you can revert to a good stable setting without having to start the entire process over again.
