Hi, New to the forums but i have been watching TimetoLiveCustoms Youtube channel for awhile. I recently started using my computer for a bit more CPU intensive things, mainly capturing videos in 1080P while playing games and it ramps my CPU up to 100% so it seemed time to overclock, but i cant find the option in my BIOS, anywhere. The computer is semi-custom, it came as a HP one for like 600 bucks, as i had to get a cheap one in a hurry. I have upgrading the graphics card, PSU and added a few hard drives and a SSD.

The motherbaord is a Foxxconn 2A92 according to CPUz, and the bios is version 6.04. I can find no information on this board on the internet, i guess its just some genaric one. I have tried using Clockgen and it doesnt seem to let me overclock with that either.

My other systems specs are:

Nvidia MSI GTS 250 OC@738 MHz

CPU : Athalon II 4X 635 @2900Mhz

PSU : RAIDMAX 530 watt

Mmory: Dual channel DDR3 6GB Kingson, 666.6 MHz

Thanks in advance for any responses!
 
hi,

Think your out of luck with that board mate.

My daughters have a pre built acer sporting a Q8200 and their board has a locked BIOS too. Only way round it as there are no BIOS updates available will be to swap out the mobo, be careful as it may not be standard form. You will need to double check the exact board sizes.
