ok, here's the deal. I am using Ai-Booster to overclock my CPU, its a e6600 Defaults at 2.4. And i am overclocking my geforce 7950 gx2 with rivatuner.

Once i overclock my CPU it states that its running at 2.4 ghz, and 2.8 ghz.

I check my gpu with GPU-z and it shows that my graphics cards first processer is running at the default 520, 620 and my second card is running at 592, 800.

How do i get into the other processors so i can overclock those?

Thanks for the help guys
 
Try overclocking from the BIOS for the CPU, and are you viewing it with CPU-Z? If not, see what is offers.

Click to expand...

can you post some screen shots...sounds interesting
 
ya, ill show u my gpu-z and my cpuz screenies
 
I tried getting into the bios and i can change everything in there accept my cpu frequency. Ai Booster will let me change the frequency, it's a little touchy, but its been working for me. It also came with the mobo so i decided i'll go ahead and use it

well i know that if you have sli that it will set both cards to whatever the oc is on the card in the primary slot. ie you only need to oc one card and both cards will run at that frequency...this might just be a bug in gpuz...it wont even detect sli in vista for some reason...i would say as long as you notice a difference in you oc then your ok
 
cool, sounds good, i know that the geforce 7950 gx2 is technically not sli, so maybe thats what i'm seeing, do u know about overclocking a duel core pc?
 
yea i have a dual core x2 and i dont seem to hav any prob ocing it.
but i do all my ocing in the bios and use rivatuner to oc my gpu.
but like i said the best way to test your oc is doing some benching before and after.
