Default How to OC with Asus P5N32-E SLI?

There is a program called AI-Booster, but whenever I change anything it says it needs to restart, so i do, and it sets it back to normal.

I tried allowing it in the bios and it did the same thing.

Is there anyway around AI-Booster and just to go through the BIOS to OC?

if at all possible, always stray from using those overclocking programs, its just not as good or as safe to do that, when overclocking from the bios is not difficult, and yields much better results.

the only reason that your bios would switch back to old settings would be because you did not save the settings, or like mine if the settings you chose were harmful to the system it would reset.

I looked around and I still can't find where to change my Core, I see my Multiplier and the only options for any core speeds is the FSB and its at 1067 and I know thats not what I change.

Some motherboards don't allow core voltage changes... which is a good thing if you're a beginner OCer...

I can't change it to OC at all though, it won't let me change it from 267 to 333

Do not use the AI Booster , it's a joke. Go into your Bios and under the second tab called extreme tweaker . Set your AI tuner to manual, FSB memory clock mode to Unlinked. This will allow you to change your FSB to overclock. Be aware that you will need to set your memory voltage and timings manualy with this board.There are some very good overclocks with this board seen at this (overclock.net ) . There are some guys there who have good stable overclocks with this board.
