Want to overclock, not on this board!

So all I have to say is this board is SUCK! I decided to upgrade to this board from an MSI B450 pro-M2 mATX (because the RGB is cool and I wanted an ATX board) A BOARD THAT APPROX. COST $30 LESS. And I can't overclock because of the crap, I applied the same overclock settings as my other board, IMO, slightly overclocked on Ryzen 5 2600X, overclocked to 4.05GHz, and it crashes every time I try to do something. this is the lowest load on the processor. I have the CPU voltage is 1.18750 which is the default voltage and the voltage I used with my other overclocked board drops every time I try every voltage I can think of and it drops, this board is a piece of crap. Don't buy it, and their BIOS UEFI layout is rubbish too. I'll give it another day to set it up and if it doesn't work I'll return the thing and go back to MSI. Update: I am returning this board, I bought the MSI B450 Gaming Plus Max which will arrive tomorrow, I am staying with MSI from now on.

Pros
  • handy item
Cons
