I am trying to a small overclock on FX-6300 on the MSI970A-G46 board. I can get the overclock stable using AMD Overdrive.
But when I make the same changes to CPU voltage in the bios. The voltage always resets to stock 1.275 when Windows starts. Core Temp shows the stock voltage, while CPU-Z shows the voltage set in the bios.
I would believe that Core Temp is not reporting properly except my overclock is no longer stable. I can work around this by setting the voltage in AMD Overdrive. Core Temp then reports that higher voltage.
If I uninstall Overdrive I cannot get the overclock stable because the voltage never rises above the stock voltage even though CPU-Z shows the higher voltage.
All my other bios settings appear to work multipliers etc.
Anybody have any thoughts?
