Hi guys, just a qns if anyone did a mod bios on asus PC? because recently i was thinking of upgrading to SSD and add more Rams to check if there is any slots. and when i open it up i saw my board have 2 extra rams slots and a few sata port and i saw the board model name. and to my surprise that there is such a board sold outside.

so i dig a little to find that there are bios for my asus pc and this motherboard.
and i was wondering if i can mod the board so that i can OC the system? since there were news in the past about some bios can OC non-k chip.

well if it does not soft brick i might wanna try out but if it will den i will leave it as it is.

What's your CPU in the first place? And your motherboard model?

If you don't give details, we cannot advise you.

CPU is i7-4770, motherboard is asus H87M-PRO/G10AC/DP_MB

Wait a minute if it is prebuild one like Asus G10AC.
Unlikely you can use asus H87M-PRO bios on the G10AC despite
the motherboard is the same.

G10AC uses a different BIOS for this desktop PC.
Reason why they lock the OC and etc. is mainly due to cooling
and etc. factors.
Other than BIOS mod you can use software like MSI afterburner to OC
but take note of the cooling.

As well as ensure your fans, heatsink are not clogged given the age of the PC
else risk of overheat is very high.
