amrmorsy Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 I didn't try to overclock to anything yet, I can't find the multiplier settings, I was following the x-bit lab guide but they said to lock the multiplier to 20x (Default setting) but i can't find how to do that???!!!

R1P5AW Posted March 13, 2010 Posted March 13, 2010 Everything to overclock is in your BIOs under the A.I. tweaker tab. I recommend you go slow and read a lot of information first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cirro Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 I didn't try to overclock to anything yet, I can't find the multiplier settings, I was following the x-bit lab guide but they said to lock the multiplier to 20x (Default setting) but i can't find how to do that???!!! i wonder why they are telling people to not use HT? (20 instead of 21x) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
R1P5AW Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 what is the multiplier option called? Change CPU setting from Auto to Manual. Keep HT on for 21x multi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdy284 Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 i wonder why they are telling people to not use HT? (20 instead of 21x) HT generates more heat, thats why if you're going to go for the MAX OC, most people turn it off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
