Before we start, i'll post my specs:

Basicly I got on Super PI for 1M I got 45 seconds and people say it's bad

It seems just a tad slow.

Admittedly, My winchester 3200 gets 42s on stock, and I feel, that all thigns considered, the 3800x2 should have been a much better CPU, the fact is, its not. Ok, so its a good clocker, but then the winchester clocks further, so for most things, the Winchester is a better chip in my eyes...Dont give any stuff about this SSE3 rubbish, its not shown me anything that needs it, wants it, or anything?

Anyway, your CPU will overclock... Maybe by not much, but maybe by a fair bit, I dont know?

That will really depend on your Motherboard. This is not the place to talk about overclocking, so put a post in the correct section, tell us your PC specs and lets see if we cant get you below that 45second mark yeah?

So i'm a first time overclocker, aka a noob! :D

So if someone can help me out..

thanks
 
Man this computers dumb.

I put the thing up to like 210, it didnt change anything.. it just stays the same

and yes, i did save before i exit the bios.

could my motherboard be naff? because it wont change any of the clocks its stubbon :|
