Hi all,
When I first got my PC up and running a couple of weeks ago, I ran CPU-Z to see what it was saying about my processor. It was underclocking itself when not in use. It would idle at 1600MHz with a multiplier of x6 and when I started doing something like browse through my HD, it would shoot up to 2667MHz with a multiplier of x10.
Since then I have tried doing a bit of overclocking, make slight changes to the FSB and multiplier in the BIOS. I decided to stop after a while as I dont yet have a proper monitor on the CPU tempreture. I put all the settings in the BIOS back to defualt.
Now when I run CPU-Z, my processor doesn't underclock itself at all. It just constantly stays at 2667MHz with a multiplier of x10.
Anybody know why??
