overclock gone!?

Spartan2022 · 8 Jul 2009 at 23:52

recently got a titan goliath system with the i7 920. it was overclocked to 3.20 and i used a program called everest to check. I dont know what made me load it back up however it appears the overclock is somehow gone? i have not made any hardware or bios changes.

Any idea how i can get this sorted? im a total overclock n00b and have never done it before lolz

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Like i said I used a program called everest which tells you what clock speeds ure components are running at; i loaded that back up and it used to say i7 920 2.6 @ 3.2ghz now it's just giving the standard clock speed. I have checked this before just after boot and it's always read 3.2.

Just downloaded CPU Z and it just says the same as everest, what will i do nows?

Thanks much for the help guys, a quick jump into the bios revealed that the system had to revert back to standard clock speeds etc due to boot failures caused by an overclock. I re applied the overclock. Now for a new issue. As identified above I did not overclock this system myself this was done by overclockers; the system is advertised as an overclocked cpu, should it not be tested to insure it runs stable with no boot failures?? Anyway any tips on how I can now keep the overclock but stop the annoying boot failure problem? If u guys need bios values I could get them in my next post.

The CPU vcore is normally set at 1.30000 and is currently set to 1.31250. Is this the value I should change?

What bios values would be helpfully bearing in mind
I'm an overclock n00b.
