e4300 underclocking

[chr0nik]

Hello all, first of all thanks everybody who helped me to fix the problem with the CPU fan yesteday. The problem that I have at the moment is that my e4300 doesn't run at 1.8Ghz but at 1.2Ghz... I dunno why is this happening, can anyone help me?

Cheers!!!

Put a load on the cpu and it'll go up to 1.8GHz, or disable speedstep in your BIOS totally for always on 100% speed. What motherboard do you have?

Ive got the same motherboard as you but im running a E6600. While idle it runs at 1600 MHz and when under load it will increase to 2400 MHz (stock speeds). For me the bus speed stays at the normal 266 MHz but the multiplier is lowered to *6.0 instead of 9.0 (will be different for a E4300).


It just a noraml feature of the board that can be disabled if you want

Disable EIST, C1E and TM2 in the Advanced options in the BIOS if my memory serves me right.
