Is there any BIOS update available for your board? Might be worth to check, sometimes it will solve those wrong readings. Be warned though, sometimes updating your BIOS will also change your overclocking potential. For the better or for the worse. | |

| We take both criticism and positive comments very positively | yes, make sure the Speedstep is disabled in the BIOS INTEL QX9650 // Gigabyte EP45 Extreme // 8GB PC2-8500 // BFG GTX260 MaxCore // DD Torture Rack // Seagate 750GB HDD // OCZ Vendetta // PC Power & Cooling 620W PSU |

| I'm Diggin it! | I've sent v1.38 to you Halut. After Capper mentioned the Speed Step, good catch Rich, I did some reading up on it for the new C2D processors. The E6600 will indeed drop the multiplier to 6 to conserve power. It will immediately raise it back to 9 as soon as you put any kind of load on the CPU. This is completely transparent to the user and is nothing to worry about. Even if you disable Speed Step in the Bios, the CPU still does it anyway. You may want to try running a program in the background while looking at CPU-z v1.39. Folding, video converting, something that's utilizing the CPU. See if it says 9 then, which would make the full 2.4Ghz show.

| Has to be SpeedStep. Not really gonna hurt anything either, because SpeedStep drops the multi when CPU is IDLE. Load your processor and it will jump to regular speed. Oh and FYI for everyone, SpeedStep has been used since the Intel 6xx Series, or maybe 8xx.
