I attempted to adjust it to 1.35v but it failed. I changed it using AOD settings instead. My BIOS doesn’t allow voltage changes.

I'm using FM2, not AM3.

Watch out for the FM2+ processor, not the AM3+. He uses the correct chipset, but the system isn't built for top speed or expensive builds—eventually you'll need to upgrade to a better platform instead of just tweaking this one.

Some users on Reddit report their Ryzen processors failing after only a short period, even when operating at just 1.4V.

I mean, I can enter the voltage I want by typing it, but when I save and close, then reopen BIOS it resets the settings back to automatic. I can adjust frequencies easily and the display stays white. This actually improves efficiency after a restart.
