overlocking problem with core 2 duo

**wllwnn** · 31-10-2008

Hi Computer gurus,
i'm trying to overclock my e4500 2.2 and i've got it to clock to 2.9. My understanding is that when running programs such as cpuz only one of my processors registers as 2.9. The other is still 2.2. My motherboard is a gigabyte P35C-DS3R. Do i need to register like that or is it both suppose to be registering 2.9?
Please help! Thanks!

It's a feature that intel has made on their CPU's, its called Speedstep. have you aware about the Speedstep, go through the link provided.

If any problem, please feel free to ask.

Don't worry about your core 2 duo problem, just disable Speedstep(or EIST, depending on what motherboard you have) and C1E in the bios and you'll be good to go.
