Overclocking Ryzen 7 1700 with an asrock motherboard A320M-K

I can only find an ai tweaker, but that only seems to have RAM overclocking, and it is different to other asrock guides that have OC Tweaker

A320 boards do not support CPU overclocking, at least not on 1st and 2nd Gen Ryzen CPUs (3000/5000 series technically do since you can do BCLK OC though that's not really recommended). If you want to overclock, you need to do a board swap to a B- or X- series board

ok Can i overclock ram though?

Even if you could overclock the CPU, I doubt that board could handle much of it.

Yeah, RAM overclocking is enabled on A320 boards. Just don't expect to get very far with that either, 1st gen Ryzen is known for their terrible memory controllers that can't reliably do 3200MT/s

i just want to overclock it to 3000 mega hertz, so that should be fine
