I have an Biostar Intel socket 775 gf7050-m7 SE, e8500 cpu. Recently i dled cpuz and realized my cpu steps up at various times but usually runs at 2000 ghz with a 6x ratio. Well unfortunatley this isnt what i paid for, i look at it like buy a v8 and getting 4 cylinders. I understand the fact is i dont need the power thats why it is speed steping " Intel Speed Steping". But i want the power and i paid for it so ive been trying to figure out how to get a stable 3.16 9.5 ratio.
Steps ive done
1. updated bios
2. disapled intel speed step within the bios Yes there is a setting that reads intel speed step, so i
disabled it
3.i have windows vista, so i went to power options and made sure everything was set to performance
the cpu is reading on vista to be running at 100%
4. i read as many forums as i could to see if there was bios setting that im missing
5. didnt find anything, i did find that people have overclocked the board so i know it can take the power input
So ive looked in the bios and it shows the cpu to be set at 9.5 ratio and 3.16ghz but its not so im confused as to what i need to do.... help me please
