Ok, I have an Asus A8N-E motherboard revision 2.00 and my processor is Venice Rev E3. The bios is 1005. I have not tried any beta bios'es yet. CPU-z reports the chipset as nForce 4 Rev A3.
Also have a SLI version and it works and overclocks great and the boards are very similar so I"m familiar with it. Somehow, this A8N-E board won't overclock at all!
CPU-Z shows the processor is slightly overclocked at 1813mhz and multiplier of 9x HTT at 201.5
Now, the HTT is running very low, should be at 1000mhz. No matter what I set the FSB at, the cpu still stays at this same speed.
I've already tried clearing the bois and then changing my settings back. I've tried setting the HTT speed in the bios to 2x, 3x, 4x, and auto, to no avail, as many others in the forums have encountered, but mines is locked at 201.5mhz! Tried retarded things like changing memory speeds, voltages, etc but nothing does anything!
Is there some retarded jumper that controls or locks overclocking? In my previous experience, if this jumper was moved to lock, the bios would grey out the settings so you can't use it.
