I need help overclocking my APU. In the BIOS i am only able to change the multiplier. If I change anything else my system will not boot. Is there a way to change anything else or only multiplier.

AMD QUAD-CORE A8-3870K 3.0GHZ APU
MSI A75MA-G55
Kingston XMP 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 Non-ECC CL9 (2x4GB)
Microsoft Windows 7
 
I've searched for other posts, and can't find anyone else using my mobo. I'm also not sure what some of the default voltages are so I don't know where to start. Right now I'm able to get 110 x 30. Ideally I would like to be somewhere around 120 x 30 to take advantage of my ram. anything over 110 though and when it reboots I get three beeps indicating not enough ram. This is all with voltages set on auto. I am able to change cpu voltage, nb voltage, and dram voltage, but am not sure what there default is or what the max is?
