    Only 1600 MHz at full load

    Resolved: Ran the "RMClock_WipeOut" registry key...

    Hey all...

    I've been following the "undervolting" guide posted here on NBR. I've managed to lower my "12x" multiplier to 1.0000v and the rest og the multipliers were also lowered a bit more than default.

    But when I'm using "Orthos CPU Loader" it does state 2493 MHz but "RightMark CPU Clock Ultity" and CPU-Z only states approx. 1600 MHz...

    If I'll reset all my multipliers (remembering to click "Apply") it still only states approx. 1600 MHz. But if I shut down "RightMark CPU Clock Utility" then "CPU-Z" will state 2500 MHz...

    Now I'm wondering whether my CPU is actually utilizing the full 2.5 GHz or not when using "RightMark Clock Utility" ? Lowering the different voltages of the multipliers shouldn't result in lower clock speed ?

    Assign only the highest multiplier the lowest possible voltage, in one of the profiles and then run Orthos etc. It should then utilize the full frequency.

    It doesn't... But I have resolved the issue. After I ran the "RMClock_WipeOut" registry key it now also runs with the full 2500 MHz with the other multipliers lowered.
