Hello, I assembled a budget gaming setup using an Intel Xeon X3440 CPU, 2x4GB HyperX Fury 1600 MHz RAM, an XFX Radeon R9 380 2GB GPU, and an Asus P7H55-M motherboard. The default CPU speed is 2.55 GHz, which feels a bit slow compared to current requirements. I was aiming to reach at least 3.0 or 3.2 GHz using a Deepcool Gamma 200T cooler. Since I’m not an expert in overclocking older CPUs on outdated boards, I’m unsure which adjustments would work best. I really appreciate any guidance you can offer. Thank you ahead of time.

Does the mainboard model you're using match P7H55-M LX or Pro? What kind of power supply do you have connected? Are you sure the latest BIOS version was downloaded directly from the manufacturer's website?
