Hey, I recently bought an extra 2GB of RAM (Which my 32-bit Windows was quick NOT to fully recognize beyond 2.75GB) as well as the processor in the title. As you might have heard, it has completely unlocked multipliers up to 25. The default settings are 200x13 for 2600Mhz, and I rammed it up to 200x16 for 3200MHz. Now, the BIOS reports the full speed and when I look at the computer properties in Windows, it also reports about 3.2GHz. However, CPU-z, 3DMark06, and AMDClock all report it as 2600MHz, still. I've noticed that if I change the FSB, all these programs recognize the change, by not the multiplier. I THOUGHT it might be a power saving option where it keeps the multiplier down until the processing power is needed, but even during the benchmarks and gaming, it stays at 2600MHz. Any ideas would be great (Also, if you know of any way of getting Windows to let go of some of that reserved memory without reinstalling any new operating system, that would be great, too).
