G3258 + MSI H81M-P33 Overclocking issues
Go to solution
Solved by MageTank,
One last note. Finally managed 4.2GHz using that guide (: I'll take that if I'm honest. Clearly didn't luck out on my cpu/ mobo. Oh well! haha.
Considering your mobo being an H81 and not exactly made with OCing in mind, i would say 4.2ghz is very respectable. I too am stuck at 4.2ghz even on my Z97, due to this Asrock board lacking the proper options for OCing. I cannot touch my Vccin, and Asrock has my default Vccin set at 1.7, which limits my ability to push for higher clocks. However, i can undervolt quite well on this chip, which comes in handy in my mini itx case. With enough of an undervolt, i might be able to go passive on my cpu heatsink assuming i find a heat spreader large enough to dissipate the heat properly.
