Just trying to get this clocked to 3200.

Not going for any sort of insane overclock.:rolleyes:

Set the bios to 400x8 and mem divider set 1:1 and boots into windows no problems although its not stable.

Once in Windows however CPU-Z shows 3600 not 3200.

Anybody have any idea why this would happen?
System is in sig...

Thanks in advance...
 
CPU-Z really should show the correct clock.

Check your BIOS to make sure it is set to x8.
 
Got it sorted.

Made the changes in the Uguru section of the bios and then pressed F10 to save from the Uguru menu.

This seems to have done the trick 400x8 now showing as 3200.

Previously just saving from the main bios screen, don't think it likes it.:eek:

Possibly a slight glitch in the bios..:D

Thanks for the help...;)
