Hello, I began my CPU overclock setup after also adding RAM overclocking. So far everything seems fine, but I’m having trouble raising the bus BCLK from 100 to 101. In BIOS it’s set at 101.5, while CPU-Z and other tools show 100. What steps can I take to boost BCLK frequency? My current settings: CPU ratio for all cores, 50 (temporarily), fixed mode, voltage overrides enabled. Ring ratio is 47, core voltage is 1.28, and the loadline calibration uses a Stock XMP profile at 4000 MHz with specific settings. This configuration won’t work as intended. By the way, I’ve adjusted it slightly because it really improves performance for an old game I play.

Updated the title and replaced "FSB" with "BCLK". It's really crucial for me that BCLK overclock works well.
