Thats better! :D .

It seemed more stable too!, it doesnt normally complete 3dmark at those clock speeds, could that be because the graphics card isnt being bottlenecked? Or the 8.3's just more stable??

Cant believe one setting can make that much difference, hope it sorts it out for the OP when he gets back.

Theres a couple more that i dissable to. i think the TM2 is dissabled on mine also.

Lol, np, I'm still fairly new to overclocking, had to look up a load of things up that were in the bios when I first got this mobo. It is my first "enthusiast" mobo, i.e loads of OC settings! Anything else you can think of, would it be helpful to give a run down of the settings I have set?

Just hope this sorts the OP out too, couldnt sort it when i posted the same thing the other day, vista so fast now, lol! So how come speedstep doesnt seem to be working now? shall i just utrn it off now then?

Cheers.

because speed step controls the cpu stepping speed and voltages i think and the c1e does the same when its dissabled it allows the cpu to run at full clock speed all the time. this is the reaon why your scores improved.

its a way to save energy and lowers temps as long as your max temps are ok then theres no problem.

Check your Control panel - power settings.

If it's set to "Home/Office" it should disable speed step without having to change it in the Bios.

Is your only reference 3dmark06 when doing your benchmark, do you have any games where you can see the FPS?

Write down your bios settings like I did, then we can all have a look cus there is a great possibility it is a bios setting like my problem was.

Better scores, get rid of old drivers and processes you aren't using. There's something not right with your system.

I still think something is not right, many dual core 3870 rigs score well beyond that! There is still some bug sitting around. Like erocker said, I recommend a reinstall also, it is a failsafe way of being sure its not a OS/driver issue
