OverclockingThere are various ways of getting more performance from a system for a very small outlay, and the most common would be to overclock the system. This involves surpassing the recommended performance rating of components to a point that is beyond them.

To overclock, most users would find that altering options directly in the BIOS give the best results, and that’s exactly what we will be doing.

We would be running our memory at a slower speed than its stock rating so that it can be put out of the equation and the focus will be solely on the processor.

From testing the two boards from Asus and Gigabyte, we were able to identify what the APU can do, but was hoping for a bit more from this board as it seemed to instinctively give off that extreme feel and we’d heard good things from the initial testing before we received the board. We were right and were able to obtain a stonking 3.56GHz using 126×29 at 1.5V. We weren’t really prepared to push the APU further in terms of volts unless we could master the temperatures to be a bit lower, but that’s something we may look at on a later date.
