APU OVERCLOCKING

SeanWilkes87 · July 7, 2015

Hey Guys,

I'm pretty much new to overclocking, but I think I have it down for the CPU portion.

I have the A10-7870, I can get the CPU portion up to 4.45 GHz with a voltage of 1.45. My trouble is with the GPU portion of the chip. It's stock at 720MHz at 1.2 volts, I'm trying to get it between 900-1020. I've tried raising the NB voltage going all the way up to 1.325 volts. I tried lowering the NB frequency to give the GPU more power, and sand with the CPU. Then I thought since its an APU maybe raising the CPU voltage would help. I take that up as high as it will go, to 1.55, but still it can't even pass Novabench's 800x600 graphics test, crashes right in the middle with anything over 800MHz.

Is there anything that I can do differently to get my GPU running at a higher frequency? I

What other voltages are available in your UEFI? I'm a little rusty it's been a while since I played with FM2(+) but I think there's another one that can help you.

For the CPU the max is 1.55 and the NB is 1.425-1.5 somewhere around there, I'm not in front of it at the moment but I know that's right fit the CPU and that's a ball park I know it's somewhere around that for the NB.
