I have an AX8 and a Venice core 3500+. 11 is the multiplier for my 3500+ the default is 11x200 but AX8 ocs a bit 204x11. And if you want cooler temps, just go to the power options and select 'minimal power management' and your cool n quiet will be enabled! I didnt know this until yesterday and was wondering why my processor had not throttled since December, it was just that simple option i didnt do in power management. My cpu temp is 39C and my case temp 38C! I had the winchester 3200+ maybe the winchester uses the 10 like my 3200 winchester does. I just build this system with the AX8 the 3200+ winchester is on the AV8.

Reflash to BIOS 1.1 and reset the CMOS. This should fix the CPUz issue.

Did you reflashed the BIOS to 1.1 and reset CMOS? Are you using the digital out for the monitor? Try the analog video cable.

 

[tvdang7]

which one is 1.1? 10 11 or 13?

thanks for the reply but i reflashed to 1.1 and my cpu-z problem is still there. my fsb is at 250 and it reports 204? and for the HTT does setting it on auto make it automatcially drop it to what fits? or is it really at 5?

 

[furballi]

Should work if you reflash BIOS and reset CMOS. Remove the battery for a few minutes and retest.
