The process of increasing CPU performance is called overclocking. Usually it is used when working with comparatively old processors. their modern counterparts already have a high speed of information processing and transmission.
Necessary
- - Clock Gen;
- - Core Center.
Instructions
Step 1
It is important to understand that the process of overclocking the CPU can damage this device. Only do it if you really need to. Install the Clock Gen program or any equivalent that allows you to perform a CPU stability test. If this device already has malfunctions, then it is better to abandon the artificial increase in its performance.
Step 2
Use the BIOS menu functions to optimize CPU performance. Do not overclock the CPU with Windows programs. Firstly, changes in CPU parameters will occur only after the operating system is launched, and secondly, not all such utilities are endowed with a high-quality protection system. Open the BIOS menu after restarting your computer.
Step 3
Go to the Advanced Chipset Configurations or Advanced Setup menu. The menu name depends on the motherboard model. Choose a way to increase the CPU performance: change the bus frequency or multiplier. It is better to use the first option, because it allows you to fine-tune the processor parameters.
Step 4
Find the item CPU Frequency or CPU Clock. Change the bus frequency of the central processor by a few tens of Hertz. In this case, the total frequency will increase by 100-300 MHz. Raise the voltage supplied to the CPU by changing its value in the CPU Voltage item. Press the F10 key to save the new settings and restart your computer.
Step 5
Check the stability of the central processing unit using the previously installed program. Repeat this cycle until you achieve optimal processor performance. Do not raise the CPU voltage unless necessary.
