Even got Core 2 Quad Q9400 to 3.4Ghz on stock BIOS, stock voltage, no CPU mod, stock cooling. You are wrong, SpeedStep, and you always have been. Please leave the forums before you embarrass yourself even further. I have proven you wrong multiple times. You said 3010 does not support E3 1240, but it does.
bios settings must be there and support the CPU if changed out.
as you learned DELL did not support, this, actions, why would they?, and then burn the chip up and void the warranty.? Intel sells core i7-nnnnX the X has a warranty cost, for obvious reasons.
The PC is business grade PC not a gamers toy, (toys are great but not this PC)
Running non Dell BIOS is not supported, and frankly and endless useless topic, join gamers forum ,gee?
hacks are endless, for sure. (and is also based on Luck and skills)
there may be pure software (with correct processor ) that can do this IDK,
Some of the other people here think that even with this being a non ami bios you cant still use the ami flashing tool to flash a non ami bios to it. You easily can, or if you can find it, you can flash a custom bios that unlocks features that were thought to not exist on any of the H61/H71 chipset motherboards. I recently had to do something similar in a socket 1150 9020 dell oem in order to use a BGA to LGA converted i7 4980HQ, and was able to get a modest overclock of 4.3ghz all core, at stock voltage and a bump to the tdp from 47w to 105w, which the pc I modded is actually more recent than the 3010 but uses essentially the same bios, as I have fiddled with both of them in the past. It is more than possible to overclock on the 3010, but is more of a common place in Russia where the used pc market is flourishing, and they get these computer motherboards and cpus for next to nothing.
I overclocked a Dell 755 with a Intel Q9650 Quad rated at 3 GHz to 3.5 GHz easily. It did require a heat sink upgrade and additional fans to compensate the heat, as this CPU doesn't need to exceed 75 degrees C for very long. But it was very easy. I'm about to overclock a Dell Optiplex 3010 exactly the same way.
I am overclocking an Optiplex 3010 right now! I also answered another one he responded to on a Dell Optiplex 755, which I also overclocked a Q9650 Quad from 3 GHz to almost 4 GHz. Settled on 3.6 GHz to keep it stable. I PCI was not able to keep up with the Bandwidth the CPU was pushing so hard it was causing a bottleneck. Curiously the CPU was clocking right along with no problems in sight of 4.2 GHz or more. The old Q35 Chipset just couldn't keep up with it!
btw everyone this guy here has another account called silver. he has alot of time on his hands and his accounts are seen everywhere appearing to look like a tech guru.

Overclocking is not supported on ANY Optiplex. Saying otherwise is nonsense.
Optiplex 755 is completely different LGA755 chipset from 2007 whereas the 3010 is LGA 1155 chipset from 2011.
The 2 are in no way related in any way.

There is NO OVERCLOCK on ANY Optiplex period end.

the question is about bios overclocking ,your screenshot show software overclocking in windows.
3010 is still a good pc
i have added i7-3770 ,2 x 8gb ram and trying to add nvme ssd on pcie 16x slot, as boot drive.

try to modify the BIOS. in the AMI edit utility there is option for BCLK on H77 chipset. I can give you mod BIOS, but you flash at your own risk.
Use Universal BIOS Backup Toolkit to get BIOS rom file and post link to file.

You can't say I'm wrong and then tell people to modify the Bios without going over step by step what you did.
There are no overclock settings in the Dell Bios.
There are no end user bios modification utilities.
Dell does not use AMI Bios in the 3010.
The screen shot shown is Optiplex 755 not 3010.

seems to me the 755 poster is full of beans,, speedstep told you the truth. but the OP was open ended,
to overclock you need:
a processor that allows it, (intel charges extra for this, lots, as warranty insurance (after you burn it up)
then shows:
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/gaming/resources/how-to-overclock.html
bios settings must be there and support the CPU if changed out.
as you learned DELL did not support, this, actions, why would they?, and then burn the chip up and void the warranty.? Intel sells core i7-nnnnX the X has a warranty cost, for obvious reasons.

Unless you can document the supposed changes you enumerate I say its nonsense.

I suppose I will have to upload the results of the benchmark and burn in of the Optiplex 3010.

I tried setFSB and it does not work. I do not have CV184-2APAG in the clock generator but you can overclock on OptiPlex 760/770/780/755.
