    Are you trying to increase the multiplier - only the FX series CPUs will allow you to do this.

    All other A64 CPUs need to be o/c'd using the CPU frequency, HT multiplier & RAM dividers. Sometimes additional Vcore is required.

    I strongly recommend that you do some reading up first though...

    Better to understand what you're doing before you start. Less chance of breaking something.
