    Question Asrock PG-ITX WIFI m.2 slot for OS

    Thank you for the clarity. I too have transitioned to Asrock a few years ago and appreciate its straight forward UEFI approach especially since manual overclocking in my opinion is no longer a productive option. (At least for AM4/5)

    I want to thank you all for your help. I resolved the issue this morning. Windows 10 64bit does not support my AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ processor. Once I figured this out windows 10 32bit installed without a hitch. Thanks again.

    3570k OC Question...

    apologies....apparently there are many variables for each individual cpu. your claim is 1.13-1.14 volts for stable 4.1 OC. These are very modest voltages and your temps are low so i would lock the voltage in at 1.14 and call it a day. Manual no offset in bios.
