I have a NF980-G65 motherboard from MSI running an AMD Phenom II X4 945 processor, 850W corsair PSU, 2X2 GB of G.Skill ram, 0 raid HDD, and GTX 460.
I was fooling around with the FSB speed trying to get some overclocking done, and now the default is set to 240 (Instead of 200).
If i change it to anything under 240, it changes the other numbers such as CPU speed, but the displayed number for FSB stays at 240. When I start windows 7, it shows the computer running on 3.00 ghz (stock), but when i run prime95, it crashes almost immediately. When i go back into the bios, it loads with 3.60 ghz cpu speed and 240 FSB. I even tried to reset the cmos jumper to reset the settings. It reset everything else (such as boot sequence) so i know its resetting, but the default stays at 240.
Also, when i try to set it above 240, it displays the correct FSB and cpu speeds.
Its only when i set it below 240 such as 220 that it keeps displaying 240 while showing cpu speeds based on 220.
Did i damage the motherboard?
WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!?
