help to overclock
Henry, you should slow things down a bit. As I mentioned, you should install in small steps. Your motherboard might accept changes in 100Mhz at a time, but you're going much faster than the CPU can handle right now. If the system won't boot, revert to the last stable setup and begin again. Getting to 2.1Ghz with what you have could work, though it might be challenging.
Frostedtim needs to adjust the pace of changes. Consider installing motherboard parts in steps of 100Mhz at a time. Your CPU might not handle the jump into higher frequencies as expected. If the system fails to boot, revert to the last stable setup and begin again. Achieving 2.1Ghz with your existing hardware seems challenging. Would replacing the Xeon CPU with a different core, such as 6600 or 9505, be a viable option?
If you possess those items and wish to experiment, proceed. I'm going to rest now, but good luck and stay safe!
the overclock won't bring you a satisfying result.
save up for a new pc to be real.
