World Community Grid 10th Birthday Challenge -- 16 November - 25 November!

I get 3.2 or around that. I actually was using that comand to see if maybe the clock sped would throttle up under load. But no dice. Also no fix either yet. For some reason it just won't use any multiplier settings I set in the bios. I am not to worried about it right now considering it is plugging along at a tad less ppd then my dual 1366 rig. 10 to 12k ppd is pretty good for it.

My theory is that it is using the settings that you have set in the bios, but Ubuntu is not detecting that it is overclocked, but it is.

i7z is a tool that was written to support i3, i5 and i7. It will tell you what your CPU frequency is.

More info: https://code.google.com/p/i7z/

Code:
To install i7z
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install i7z

To run i7z
sudo i7z

try the OC I'm running on my current 3930k. 35 multi with a CPU strap of 125. Maybe Linux will take a strap OC.
