geekapproved Splendid Dec 10, 2010 8,766 0 31,460 Dec 25, 2011 #4 Remember there are two E6300's. One is 1.86ghz and is 65nm and the other is 2.8ghz and 45nm. Obviously you don't have the 65nm one though. If you showed us a screenshot of cpu-z with the cpu at stock speed I could answer your question. Your fsb overclock is confusing cpu-z. What does CPU ID Hardware monitor show it as? Bios? Upvote 0 Downvote

Thornyjohny Distinguished Dec 23, 2011 194 0 18,710 Dec 25, 2011 #5 It's listed in the BIOS as an E5500, thanks for the help, everyone. But if it's an E5500, why does it say Intel Pentium E6300 in CPU-Z? PS: It was like that before I overclocked it. Upvote 0 Downvote
