feat: add CPU overclocking SMU tool and memory timing info to overclocking guide
Added section documenting the bc250_smu_oc tool (Dec 2025) for CPU overclocking/undervolting via SMU reverse engineering. Also corrected the memory overclocking status — a community Mem Timing Utility exists.

## CPU Overclocking & Undervolting (SMU Tool)
|
||||
|
||||
A community-developed SMU (System Management Unit) tool enables CPU overclocking and undervolting on the BC-250.
|
||||
|
||||
**Repository:** [bc250-collective/bc250_smu_oc](https://github.com/bc250-collective/bc250_smu_oc)
|
||||
**Created by:** mrfrakes and dantistnfs (via SMU reverse engineering)
|
||||
|
||||
### What It Does
|
||||
|
||||
- Overclock all 6 CPU cores (up to 4 GHz @ 1275 mV reported)
|
||||
- Undervolt the CPU for lower power and temperatures
|
||||
- Detect viable overclock for your specific board
|
||||
- Apply overclock automatically on startup
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
- **Cooling:** Good active cooling is essential — CPU overclocking adds significant heat on top of GPU load
|
||||
- **PSU:** Ensure adequate headroom (300W+ recommended when combined with GPU overclock)
|
||||
- **Testing:** Use incremental steps and stress test thoroughly
|
||||
|
||||
!!!warning "Silicon Lottery"
|
||||
Not all BC-250 boards will reach 4 GHz. Use the tool's detection features to find your chip's safe limits. Always test stability under sustained load before committing settings.
