Hello People. Im new at overclocking cpu's and i was wondering if anybody could help me
I built my pc myself:
Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit SP2
Core 2 Duo E8500 3.16ghz
Gigabyte GA EP45-DS3 Motherboard
Kingston 4GB 800mhz ram
Sapphire HD 4870 512mb
I basically know how to overclock my cpu but i've been having some problems with it.
I read a few guides on overclocking which gave me a basic idea, so i go into my bios and change the Cpu Host frequency from 333 to 343 and left the multiplier at 9.5 and left all voltages on auto just as so many people said to start off doing.......... nothing.
My pc refused to boot up completely and i had to manually turn it off then on again to fix it.
I went back into the bios and it said the my pc a suffered from a overclocking failure or an incorrect voltage....something or rather. So i tried it again at 353....... nothing! Again...... isnt it frustrating.
i've read all these different storys about how this cpu is a beast overclocker but i cant seem to overclock it at all.
Any help here would be much appreciated
