OC the FX8370 paired with a wraith cooler on a 970A SLI Krait Edition
I create a budget game and productivity PC. The issue I encounter is my mistake. I attempted to overclock my CPU without realizing it was a faulty motherboard. Plus, I’m totally new to overclocking. I used MSI Live Update 6 and Command Center, but now things are even worse—it’s super unstable. I tried resetting it back to default in the BIOS, but it didn’t work.!!! NOTE !!! : I haven’t deleted any programs.
The installed software includes:
- MSI Live Update 6
- MSI Super Charger
- MSI Command Center
- MSI Fast Boot
- MSI Smart Tool
My system hardware is:
- AMD FX-8370 & Wraith
- NZXT Hale82 V2 - 550W
- Gigabyte Radeon R7 370 - WindForce 2X OC - 2GB GDDR5
- MSI 970A SLI Krait Edition
- HyperX Fury - DDR3 1600Mhz CL10 Kit Wit - 8GB
It’s a budget build, please have a good laugh before commenting.
Can someone assist me with overclocking or setting it back to default?
Enter the BIOS and adjust to standard configurations or remove the CMOS to reset the settings.
How long should I leave the CMOS out?
