I mean, I suspect the RAM is what's holding you back. What exactly are you running? If it's some cheap Kingston kit or something similar, 2.15V might be a bit low for 950+MHz. I wouldn't push it much past 2.2V though, since those budget sticks don't handle high voltage very well. Then again, the CPU clock itself isn't bad, so maybe it just doesn't want to go any higher. What are you using to cool it?

It says: Now system is in safe mode please reset your cpu frequency.
Some people told me an update might fix it.

man, Razarach, you're running 4100+ on an AM2 board??😕 😕 🤣 🤣 🙏 🙏

btw, no clue which CPU you actually have, but go ahead and try, though I doubt it's the BIOS. maybe it just can't take any more, try bumping up the voltage or see if your RAM is messing with you.

Looks like it's the successor to the Cooler Master Hyper 212, and reviews look solid.

it's not really the successor to the 120 ultra extreme, just its smaller brother. can't find it at any local retailers right now.
