OC not good for MOBO

[Akuman1]

I feel as if the mobo is trash for my overclocking needs. I have a ga78lmtusb3 with an fx 6300 and I can't overclock them at all not even just a bit. If I do, the bios says, ''experienced boot failures because of overclocking'' it is so annoying, I just wanna play my games 60 fps :'''''( any help guys?

Budget AM3+ motherboards are notoriously poor overclockers. While you should get a mild overclock rather than no overclock, in any case, it wouldn't be enough to significantly alter your PC's gaming performance. You might get more improvement from a GPU upgrade -- you can justify up to a 1050ti or so on this CPU -- but I doubt you'll eke out much more performance from the CPU (nor would I suggest investing in another CPU or motherboard on a 2011 platform, a GPU upgrade you could take to a newer platform).
