This maybe a silly question because i am a bit behind the times when it come to overcloking (last clock was a 2500 Barton lol) but why is it that in CPUID the multiplyer on my e6300 keeps changing between 6-7? 1 second its 6 the other its 7 etc... its annoying me because the clock speed keeps dropping from 2240 down to 1920. Is this some sort of throttling to lower power consuption or am i going nuts?

w00t im a n00b :D just ran prime95 and the multi was fixed at 7 so it is just throttling down when idle. See i figured it out all by myself. :p
 
sweet, now for another question. What can i expect from my e6300 on a DS4 with stock cooler? I have XMS2 6400 memory (6404). With the FSB at 320 i am stable and running at 55c full load.
 
Invest in a Arctic Freezer Pro, I've got 3.6 now on my e6320 and its fully on a DS3. It idles around the 38 and loads at around 56 / 57. You'll need the Ram to support it though.

Is that the best cooler for this type of chip/overclock? It seems a bit to cheap to be good! But of course i am not going to argue if it is ;)
