Hello everyone, i hope someone can help me out here.
I just bought a Athlon X2 4200 and have it overclocked to 2.75 Ghz.
My system specs are Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe, 2GB A-Data PC3200 memory, ATI Radeon X1950Pro. I have the CPU running stable at 250 X 11.
I upgraded from an Athlon 3700 and had it overclocked at the exact settings.
Ok so here is the problem...i see no difference in performance between the two. I have run some benchmarking tests like Sandra Lite and PC Mark 06 and the results have been the same as with my Athlon 3700 single core. One thing i noticed was that under PC MArk 06 it says i have 1 Physical CPU / 1 logical CPU. I do have two CPU's listed in the Device Manager though, as well as in the Bios. But i notice no changes. I scored a 4200 on Pc Mark when everyone else is 6000 or above with similar systems.
I have the HTT at 4X and my memory is running stable at 220Mhz. Like i said, the system, is stable but just not running any faster then my single core.
Any ideas what could be the issue?
Thanks
Steve
