ok, so i am looking at my quad cores clock speeds and temps, and i had just recently installed AMD Overdrive, and in Core Temp it says that my CPU speed goes from 800mhz for a sec, then to 3Ghz for a bit, then bounces back down to 1.8Ghz, wth is going on?
 
haha... ya i kinda felt dumb after i posted this an thought...

maybe its C&Q working...lol

cant argue with the idea of the program tho,
i Just dl'd it to see how far i can go safely on stock voltage and hsF till i get my new one :) and doin some benchmarking.
 
When overclocking, it's recommend to disable Cool'n'Quiet as it tends to mess with the settings.

I tend to disable it entirely - it doesn't seem to work very well as far as I'm concerned. Even if my monitoring software shows all four cores at 80%+ and there's a noticeable slowdown of my computer, it still registers as running at 1300MHz. Surely utilising its full speed would be the logical choice in this scenario :confused:
 
whats the max safe Vcore a P940 should have? core temp says mine is 1.35v atm but at bios it says like 1.4?
