How Do I Tell...

...if my overclock was successful. Meaning:

In my ASUS bios I changed the FSB from 200-215. BUT...when I go into windows I get mixed results. I look at MyComputer's settings and it says i have a 2150 MHz CPU, I go into my Sapphire ATI overclock software and read the stats on my computer and it says the same ( about 2150MHz ) when I go into ASUS Probe (came with the mobo adn you can see the temps, fan speeds, and system profile) it says I have a 2000MHz cpu, this is the same when I check one other program (cant remember the name). So what's the deal? Thanks in advance.

Why not run some benchies? Try Sissoft Sandra (free to d/l). See what it reports your cpu running at. Then use the cpu benchie to test performance with and with out the OC.

Thanks I downloaded that and it tells me the right clock speed, but I still wonder why the hell all the other programs disagree
