Using AS-ROCK OC Tuner for this OC?

Hmm, i don't know if OC'ing that chip will benefit you in some way.. i mean, i have a E6500 @2.93GHz and it's running just fine. but since you're asking...

I think it's safe to use because it is from the same manufacturer as your Motherboard, i guess it should work ok.

Do you have an Aftermarket cooler?

Okok i see, well, what you need to do is download the software, install it, try a little bit of overclock and test it.

If you see temperatures going higher than your "comfort ones" lower the O.C., after that, stress it with Prime95 for a couple of hours to see if the O.C. is stable and there you go.

By the way, your Motherboard is not made for overclocking, it's just a mainstream series, i'd recommend a really slight overclock to begin with :) and then, take it from there until you find your exact point

Let us know how it went :)

One thing to be aware of is depending on how you use the program, if you let it do auto stuff, you may find you have higher voltages then needed to achieve the same clock speeds if you did it manually. In short.... these programs tend to over-volt. What that does that mean to you.... higher temps.

This is why most overclockers avoid these programs.

No I have no experience with this particular piece of software, but I did try the equivalent (EasyTune 6) for my motherboard and "Auto" did over-volt some stuff.

Now, depending on the program, some (EasyTune 6) will also give you more control over voltages and other stuff. If that’s the case I recommend you try your hands at manual settings…. Though if you’re going to do all that, might as well use the BIOS.

My two cents.

hey guys ive been playign around with the as octuner , i got massive cooler master coller and 900 watt power supply but it seems every time i hit 3.8 sopt with the octuner my computer crashes , its very anoying becouse it runs at 3.7 only at 30 degrres under load
