So i was gonna get a new rig but it seems its not gonna be next week
So decided to OC my AMD CPU. So i downloaded AMD overdrive and i turned it on to OC. i turned it on 2mhz per try, so it goes up 2mhz each time.
After about an hour its done and it should go from 3.0 to 3.5(3495 to be precise)
It tells me if i press oke it will reboot, so i press ok and it reboots.
Back in windows my clock speed is still 3.0 when i check my computer properties, or when i check CPU-Z or even the amd overdrive program.
Last CPU clock is: 3495 MHz
Last HT Link ref. clock is: 233 MHz
Last CPU multiplier is: 15 X
I've never really OC'd so any help is welcome. my max multiplier is 15. And this is standard settings. Maybe my CPU just can't be overclocked? but why does Overdrive tells me it is not 3.5?
Thanks!
