alright i hope this is the right place to do this but here goes
i have recently purchased a m4n98td evo along with an amd phenom II 1090t black edition and now have decided that i would like to overclock the thing
this is my first attempt overclocking and so far i have not gotten the results i have been looking for. the only semi-stable OC setting i have gotten was when i only bumped up the multiplier by one ( OS loaded and ran a CPU tester for a few minutes), any tomfoolery with the bus frequency makes the computer not start (like what happens when you ram isn't seated right is just turns on and off continuously or crash right when the OS is starting
the base cpu bus rate is 200 and the base multiplier is 16.0 i have only been messing with these two settings there are far too many options in and around the bios to attempt to keep and sort of experimental process going on
on the mother board there are two settings related to over clocking, the core unlocker switch (which i have on ) and the overvoltage jumper (which i do not have on regular voltage allows up to 1.5 and over volt to 1.85)
i would appreciate any insight or advice you could render
