Hello, I've been attempting to overclock with MSI Afterburner but it's not working—I can't move the sliders. Then I tried Sapphire Trixx, but it doesn't load any information and I'm stuck! Help please.

Here are my specs:
Processor AMD A8-6410 APU with AMD Radeon R5 Graphics
Video Card AMD Radeon™ R5 Graphics
RAM 8.0 GB
Operating System Microsoft Windows 8.1 (build 9600), 64-bit

if i overclock it, what would it be? whatever is possible to achieve beyond the stock stable is uncertain—only what you manage to get is certain. overclocking comes with personal risk; nothing is guaranteed out of the box. if you manage any overclock, it largely depends on your components and their ability to handle it. there’s no fixed standard, so it’s entirely up to you and how well your parts can support the change.

all that depends on chance and at your own risk? Some cards might work well for a while, others might not at all—just as it is.

Trying to boost an APU's performance should be handled via the BIOS or AMD drivers within the overdrive settings.

APUs gain nothing significant from overclocking anyway.

The APUs gain from overclocking is minimal anyway.
