Overclocked? ("I think?")

Noob here on OC...I got a AMD Phenom 11x4 955 AM3 in a Gigabyte GA-MA790FXT-UD5P on 8gigs of PC3 10666. What I did was set the CPU Clock Ratio to X17 and the CPU PLL Voltage Control to 2.500v....Have I left a setting out?? It went from 3.2 to 3.4 according to CPU-Z at a stable 93.2 degrees, which Im happy with. Should I do more than just those two settings is what Im asking...Any help will be greatly appreciated...I need a sig :rolleyes:
 
That temperature is Fahrenheit, right? If it's Celsius you have some problems :P But yeah, as long as the temps are fine and it's stable, you're fine. That's a pretty minor overclock but shouldn't bother anything. I usually ran my old X2 4200 around 2.4GHz rather than it's stock 2.2GHz mostly because I typed something wrong in the BIOS, but it was stable :P
 
Thanks for the fast reply

I would like to take it a step or two futher but Im not sure what other settings I should change, I just want to tweak it slowly.yes thats Fahrenheit:eek:
 
Have you pressed Ctrl+F1 after the bios loads, it opens more overclocking options. You need to leave the CPU PLL voltage to Auto and use the CPU Voltage control to raise your CPU voltage.
