Is your MoBo properly setup for the clock multiplier?

 

[lazyboy947]

reset bios to default, or pull cmos battery. Or manually set clock speed to the right settings, is most likely an error

hi i got a ga880gmusb3.0 rev 3.0,bios update fe,fx6200,400w psu,win 7 pro64,the bios shows 3.8 ghz but cpu-z,amd monitor,win7 experience shows 2.8ghz.i have disabled ce1,amd6,kool-quiet,turbo cpb.is the procsessor running at 3.8ghz or 2.8 ghz or is this win7 pro64 issue?

Does your cpu stays at 2.8Ghz @ load ?
Is your Bios updated to the latest version available?

i fixed my problem the clock multiplier was set to auto which whas 14x200mhz=2.8ghz i set it manually to 19x200mhz=3.8ghz.now it shows right cpu speed in cpu-z and amd monitor and windows experience,thanks 8350rocks you nailed it! i have one more question about cpb should i set manually or leave it auto?

 

[bartholomew]

I believe you mean CPU/NB.
CPU/NB is 2200 @ stock & HT Link is 2600@ Stock.
There is no significant performance gain by increasing it. you could leave it @ Auto or manually set it if its running lower than stock.

hey bartholomew,cpb-core performance boost,it has manual and a auto setting.just wondering if it makes difference?i had to set clock multiplier manually to get cpu speed to show correctly thought maybe had to the same with cpb.mobo is a ga880gmusb3.0 rev 3.1

 

[bartholomew]

oh, okay.
Is turbo core(core boost) working @ Auto, i.e. is your Cpu reaching 4.1GHz under load?
If not then you could try & set it manually to 20.5

There are some programs out there that allow you to see your current CPU performance...PerfMonitor for example is a pretty commonly used one.

It's almost always something simple...
