BIOS Setup

Important

Overclocking your PC manually is only recommended for advanced users.

Overclocking is not guaranteed, and if done improperly, it could void your warranty or

severely damage your hardware.

If you are unfamiliar with overclocking, we advise you to use GAME BOOST function

for easy overclocking.
