I placed an Hyper Evo 212 and have been experimenting with overclocking. I received one at 4375mhz, but if I exceed that it won’t start at all. I haven’t adjusted any voltages—just changed the frequency. I’m also using the ASRock UEFI BIOS.

Increase voltages and load line current to prevent significant voltage drop under heavy loads. I recommend setting the voltage to 1.4v using the Hyper 212 instead of the stock cooler. This voltage is relatively stable, having maintained 1.44-1.42 for three years without problems. It might also be wise to raise the CPU power limit to 130. Search for relevant guides to confirm core and package temperatures stay below 60°C and the motherboard stays under 70°C during Prime 95 operation.

This voltage is relatively safe, as I've maintained 1.44-1.42 for three years without problems or performance loss. It might also be wise to raise the CPU power limit to 130. Search for relevant guides to confirm your core/package temperatures stay below 60°C and your motherboard stays under 70°C during Prime 95 operation.

you should increase voltages and load line current to prevent significant voltage drop under heavy loads. I recommend setting the voltage to 1.4v using the hyper 212 instead of the stock cooler.

Check some guides to confirm your core/package temperatures stay below 60c and the motherboard under 70c when running prime 95.

Voltage isn't the only factor, you can achieve a stable overclock at lower voltages by adjusting the right configurations. I recommend setting the load line current to the second highest level, boosting the CPU power limit to 130%, and optimizing the CPU power response time for ultra fast performance. There are additional tweaks available. However, based on your experience, 1.42v should reach around 4.5ghz with the proper motherboard settings. My setup achieves 4.5ghz at 1.38v.

My games keep crashing at this overclock
🙁

I don’t know what to do—I have the voltages set correctly and everything else in place.
