Hi,
I’m checking if there’s a method to enhance performance on your Prime-B250 Plus and i3 6100 without raising the voltage. I understand the B250 chipset doesn’t allow overclocking, but could there be a workaround to slightly improve the CPU speed?

The i3-6100 features a secured multiplier. A non-locked processor wouldn't be capable of overclocking a B250 chipset.

An i5 would assist with the RX 570. You can purchase an i5-6500 for about $100 on eBay. After that, you can sell your i3-6100 for roughly $80.
