Hey guys,
To be completely honest am living the worst days here from few months trying to overclock my core 2 duo E8500 3.16 GHZ and the cpu is already unlocked!! I even bought water cooling for it so I won't suffer from overheating problems, but the real problem is; in overclocking it, it doesn's seems easy as it looks in bios at all.. When I enter the M.I.T in bios to overclock my cpu up to 4.0 GHZ, I then go to vcore selections and raise the voltages up to 1.3 BUT WHEN I CHOOSE THE RIGHT VOLTAGE EVERY TIME AND THEN SAVES AND EXIT THE PC FAILS TO BOOT (keep restarting with black screen for like 4-5 times and when I enter M.I.T in bios again I recieve red alert saying system suffered boot failures due to higher system voltages or overclocking) this problem has been killing me since I signed up here (April 14,2016) and still.. Can anyone help me please?!!!!
why when I watched videos on youtube about people ocing same cpu they didn't recieve any problems? why me? It's like the motherboard won't allow more than 1.2 V going to the cpu, How is that possible while I already have M.I.T in my bios and the cpu is already unlocked? or do i have to change some selections about the ram? bec. I once heared if i want to oc a core 2 duo cpu i have to oc the ram too but when I do that i keep recieving boot failures then system goes back to default, I once installed gigabyte easy tuner 6 and when i tried the pc freezed and had to restart it.. Can anyone help by saying what do i have to do more? pls don't tell me I just bought that cooler and wasted my money on it for no good
