Bios options. Just a thought, does it also depend on the driver? I know there is a separate driver for cool 'n' quiet on AMD 64 chips as well as a normal driver.WJA96 said:You may also have to separately turn off C1E which is like Speedstep, but different.
Is there an Intel dual core optimiser?megatron said:http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/TechnicalResources/0,,30_182_871_9706,00.html
CPUs do use drivers, wether it be from the default OS driver or an update.

P5N-E-SLI with 0505 BIOS running 4300 and OCZ DDR800
UNLINKED FSB and Memory, latter fixed at 800
Best I can get is 2.25GHz (250FSB, 1000QSB) Tried lots of different FSBs above 250 - no luck.
Increasing vCore (1.5V) doesn't affect the overclock.
Max CPU temp is 34C which sounds very low to me. Makes me wonder if the Tuniq Tower is seated properly. Looks OK.
Cheers

It doesn't have to be exactly 10 minutes you muppet!Subliminal Aura said:WTF ! 10minutes

You need to drain the mobo of all its power though and to be on the safe side, 10 minutes is ample enough to get the job done.
Hardly. If you wait 10 minutes, you can go make a cuppa.Subliminal Aura said:thut thut read my post as highlighted in bold - the quick way to drain the power. Its upto you if you want to wait 10 minutes like a n00b.

Subliminal Aura said:@Kaiju - what you suggested is the official way to do it and you won't go wrong like that. I've found that you can skip the 10 minute wait by cycling the power button a few times with the CMOS reset jumper in the reset position. This seems to work just as well and it's much quicker. I'm pretty sure it's not possible to damage the BIOS by doing this.
Why not try it next time you need to do a full reset?
