Hey guys, just wanted to share my situation. I have a Ryzen 1700, GTX 1070, EVGA G2 750 W, a PSU with 3200 MHz RAM, 16 GB of RAM, and an Abc350 gaming motherboard. I recently tried overclocking from BIOS and got it to 3.7 GHz, but it wasn’t stable. So I decided to increase the voltage from 1200 to 1220 after that. After doing this, my PC wouldn’t boot up, but everything else works fine—fans, CPU, etc. I’m really worried about damaging something. Could I fix this? Would resetting the CMOS help? Thanks in advance.

You don't require a video for this straightforward task.
The CMOS battery is a round silver coin cell situated between two expansion slots.
Turn off the PC and disconnect it from the power source.
Observe the orientation of the battery before removing it.
Extract the CMOS battery.
Wait five minutes, then reinsert it in the correct position.
Restart and enter BIOS Setup.
Verify that the boot drive configuration matches.
Make any necessary adjustments and close the system.

Your voltage should stay between 1.25 and 1.35v at most. To get your PC running again, reset the BIOS. First, unplug from the outlet and remove the motherboard battery for five minutes. Reinsert the battery and connect the load to confirm the boot drive is set properly.

I'm not sure about your approach, but you might want to look for a video.
