Step 1: Shut Down your computer
Step 2: Press the power button
Step 4: Get into BIOS by pressing F1/F2/Delete on start up (when your keyboard flashes)
Step 5: This will be different on different motherboards, but find the catagorie that contains the OCing options, go through them all if you don't know which it is.
Step 6: Find the setting that has your RAM speed. Bump it up by 50mhz.
Step 7: Hit F10 then enter.
Step 8a: If the computer boot successfully then you can repeat those steps to add more mhz. Skip to Step 11.
Step 8b: If the computer does not boot, open the case and find the cmos jumper. Put the jumper on the opposite pins and boot up. Repeat steps but bump the vdimm option up one level.
Step 9: Continue to mess around with the mhz and voltage levels. If vdimm seems to have no effect, up the vcore.
Step 10: If you still cannot achieve your desired OC, find the FSB divider option. Inside will be a few options such as 1:1, 5:4, 3:2, and 2:1. If you have really shitty RAM that won't OC at all put it at 3:2. That will give you a good FSB increase with no RAM increase. See step 9.
Step 11: After finding an exceptable OC, download and run prime95. Go to Torture Test and choose the option that puts the most stress on the CPU and run it all night while you are asleep. If you get no errors then you have a stable OC, if you get errors you may experiance some instabilty during heavy CPU load. You may want to go back and turn up your vcore or turn down your OC.



That's a lot harder to explain then it actually is to do...
