Overlock Not Saving
Overlock Not Saving
I received an ASUS motherboard after a BIOS update, and everything seems to function properly except for this: after running the AI Suite program with the 5-Way optimization, the processor clock reads 3.95GHz. However, during a stress test lasting about ten minutes, the system crashes. I changed the frequency to 3.25GHz, which resolved the issue, but when I restart, it reverts back to 3.95GHz. I tried adjusting the BIOS settings to set the core frequency to 39.25 and saved/reset, then booted into Windows. When checking the clock speed in Windows, it still shows 3.5GHz. I’m really confused and need guidance on making this overclock permanent. Please help! Thank you in advance.
one thing to note is that core ratio or multiplier must be set using whole numbers. you’ll need to adjust your BCLK settings, probably lowering them, as your multiplier was around 35 and BCLK about 112.85. if you aim for a clock speed of 3.925Hz, you should target 112.14. i don’t suggest changing these values yourself—what your 5-way did worked for you is better. other settings were also fine-tuned to reach around 3.95Ghz. it’s best to run the AI suite again, tweak slightly lower limits on voltage and temperatures, and consider AVX offset calculations if you plan to set it to 0.
if you choose not to, you can assign those numbers directly to BCLK and multiplier and test.
if you want to use the AI suite, could you share a screenshot of...

if you prefer using the AI suite, can you take a screenshot of your 5way optimization tool settings before proceeding? before starting again, make sure to load the optimized defaults in BIOS and save/reset.
