Here are Hardware info + OS
OS = Win 7 Pro 64 Bit Sp1
CPU= i5 3570

did u find the oc utility on the driver/programs disk yet?

I have a disc which came with M.B.
But I am actually waiting for Bios Update chip to come it from AsRock.
I am not sure when it will going to made it to me.
Yesterday they have asked my address; which I gave them.
The girl who asked she didn't showed to worked last time I called (4:50 pm EST).
Basically I would like to know from Bios or Software is there menue where I can O.C. without Over voltage.
if Not
Can I undervoltage at stock clock setting.
Basically I want most power at stock voltage
or
Undervoltage at stock Clock setting
Last time I have O.C. we use to increase Bus speed or plus Clock Multiplyer and bump up the V core voltage.
I am sure things are change since then.

On Jan 2nd I called the AsRock told them this M.B came with P1.80-15A Bios. I just bought this MB on Dec 24 2012. They ask me to provide proof of purchase, and which I did.
On 6th I had Bios chip in my mail box at Free of Charge :D Good Job AsRock :thumbsup:
I installed the i5 3750 and it works fine with Bios 2.30.
I just needs to get updated how these CPU can get O.C.
On old days I use to Bump up the Bus speed and Multiplyer and if I want to juice up, then bump the V core voltage.
I think things are change a lot.
I am using XMP 1.2 profile which bump up the speed automactically .
One thing didn't make sense it shows bus speed 100 Mhz o_O
So can some body school me what are new way to O.C. these chips.
OS. is Win 8 Pro 64 bit
