CPU needs too much voltage to stay stable

[tuhang]

Hi guys,

I can't seem to get my cpu overclock stable, unless I increase the voltage to 1.550V (most guides get it running with only 1.5V). My highest stable result with 1.550V is 3.5GHz, which is even considerably below other overclocks.
I assume, the problem is my mainboard, but I would like to hear your opinion on this.

Specs:
AMD A8-3870K
Asrock A75 Pro4

Thanks

All chips overclock different, their never the same and could be some of your settings.
