Hello everyone,
I wanted to test if my A8 6600K really needed a new CPU. I opened the BIOS (my motherboard is an MSI A78 E35) and tried clicking on OC Genie, but it showed an error. When I attempted to manually overclock multiplayer, voltage, and clock speed, everything was grayed out and not clickable.
Later, I tried Amd Overdrive and ran 3D Fire Strike. The results were a bit worse compared to the stock speeds.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
