Overclock Conundrum

So i just made my computer about a month ago, and of course im gonna overclock it. Just for kicks i wanted to try AoD, not the auto clock, just raising the bars and seeing what i could get before i went into the bios. So i got the core speed up to 3700 MHz stable on AoD without changing voltage. Earlier today i went into the bios and changed the clock to what AoD had it at, and saved to try it out, and my computer wouldn't post.. So then i cleared the cmos and set it again with a tiny voltage bump, and still the same thing, i ended bumping the voltage up to 1.37 from the original 1.336 with the same multiplier and still nothing, so i'm kind of confused.

i guess i might try starting over with the multiplier in the bios and see what happens, any input would be appreciated guys, thanks.
 
WOW, i personally would stop at 3.7ghz, i mean thats a massive OC for no voltage changes, and plus you can only get what another 300mhz oc, and you have to up the voltage quite a bit.
 
but i can't even get that when using the bios, just AoD, whenever i change it in the bios i don't get a post. And AoD doesn't keep the overclock in the settings when you restart your computer, you have to open AoD back up to get your overclock instead of just having it when your turn your computer on

AoD has a built in stability tester that i let go for at least 30 minutes when i ran it

Wouldn't trust it. Not for a second. My CCC auto-clocker is terrible. Its far too generous and I get artifacting left right and center when I let it do its own thing, which it "Certifies" as stable and safe. Try using prime95 instead, there is no way you'll get 3.7 with little to no voltage bump.
