    PC problem?

    Is this correct? 2ghz down to 999mhz... i havent noticed a performance decrease at all, so im not 100% sure if something wrong here...
    i cant think whats happened if its wrong as i havent changed anything in BIOS on this PC.



    theres a pic.

    Thanks

    Nick

    Cool'n'quiet. It halves your multiplier when idle to make the fan run quieter.

    You can turn this off in the bios, and as you are overclocking, you should definately turn this off.
