Hi guys,
my system specs are:
CPU: Intel(R) Core 2 Quad Q9400
RAM: 2 x 2 Gb DDR2
Motherboard: MSI G41M-P33 Combo
I want to overclock my CPU, but every time I change my CPU speed to a higher value and click save, the computer restarts itself after a few beeps, but nothing changes. I check CPU-Z and the Bus Speed is still the same as before.
The default bus speed is 333 Mhz x 8 multiplier.. I tried changing it slightly to 350. What am I doing wrong? This is my first time trying to overclock a CPU, so I am happy nothing went wrong. But I really want to know so that I can try again.
In the bios, the CPU Voltage is [Auto], and I can't change it.
Any ideas? Is there something I am missing?
Thanks guys
