I'll be honest. I'm pretty inexperienced in the world of overclocking. I literally changed almost nothing to get it to 4.1 Really all I did was plop on an aftermarket cooler and change blck setting. (I believe I have it at around 197,198 currently.) Voltages were left at stock. I'd like to think I can push it further because I didn't optimize anything.
My reason for overclocking so high is because I'm running PlanetSide 2 and it needs a beast of a computer. I'm getting frame drops during big battles and it's unacceptable for me. I'd like to push this old CPU to its absolute maximum. Is there any tips you can give me? Should I have turbo boost on or off? Currently I have it on and it seems to allow me a better overclock. If I turn it off and leave everything else the same, I will crash. My RAM is rated for 1600 and timings are 8,8,8,24. Is there anything I can do there? It seems if I go even a tiny bit over 1600 I will not be able to boot.
