    Bios shows 11x multiplier and cpu-id keeps going from x6 to 10.5 i overclocked the fsb to 1150 it's at 3013 ish mhz.

    Anyone know why the cpu id core/and multiplier are flucuating so much.


    also how can i be sure my sli 280 is used instead of the 9400m in games/etc?

    trust me you will know if your using your 9400m in the game


    Also to check which is enabled use GPU-z

    if your using hybrid they will show up or if you are running on them alone they will show up

    if your using only the 9400 they will not show up
