This doesn't look right

[cfrage]

Notice the HTT clock, isn't that supposed to be higher? Everything is running stock on an Epox 9NPA+ Ultra with the new bios. Memory reads to be at 200MHz. I tryed setting HTT to auto and 5x, still the same deal. Here's the pic.

Nope, it's correct. There is an actual HTT, which is a hyper transport bus that the processor uses to communicate with other components. The HTT bus rate that your looking at is what the processor uses to set it's own clock, it's also used for overclocking.

The actual HTT runs at 1000mhz and that's what's being adjusted in the bios, I say leave it at auto.

No, that is right. I'm wondering though, is that stock voltage? Seems a bit high.

I understand now... Sorry, new to this A64 thing

anandtechrocks: I haven't adjusted Vcore, so I assume thats correct.

check the voltage, thats not a venices default, should be max 1.4

Set to auto, guess I'll drop it down. Thanks for the heads up.

Ok, new question. Trying to find my max HTT. 205 works, however when I go to 210 its stops at POST with a msg about "running in safe mode, please go to CMOS and reset CPU freq." What gives? If I boot past that and go to windows CPU-Z reads default settings.
