I've come across various discussions suggesting this setup cannot be overclocked, other posts confirming successful attempts, some mentioning a sys32 file manipulation led to success, and now I'm feeling puzzled and upset.

Today's progress was notable. We chose to begin anew. The "Easy Tune" software was removed because of issues with the BIOS configuration. Overall, yes, this board can be overclocked to a G3258. A [email protected] setting worked without any unexpected changes. Adjusting Ratio to 33, enabling K OC, and setting Vcore to 1.2V achieved success. At [email protected] with Uncore set to 3.3GHz, the system stabilized after a short stress period. A final push at [email protected] with Uncore 3.3GHz led to freezing and a reboot. Booting at [email protected] with Uncore 3.8GHz also caused issues, followed by a power cycle and subsequent blue screen. At [email protected] with Uncore 3.8GHz, the system booted normally but failed under stress after reaching 70°C. I’m concerned about temperatures staying below 1.2V. I’ll revert to [email protected] with Uncore 3.3GHz and continue stress testing tomorrow. It seems my G3258 isn’t performing exceptionally well.
