Hi. I'm a complete newbie to overclocking and looking to get my 1090t up to 3.8-4.0, mostly for gaming purposes.
I've read that, if you're just starting out, all you need to play with (for this CPU anyway) are the multiplier and voltage, so that's all I've done. Multiplier is set to give me 3.8 gigs and voltage is at about 1.4.
Problem is, CPU-Z is showing core speed 800 mhz and a multiplier of 4, which is the stock 3.2 ghz speed. However, it does reflect my change in voltage: http://gyazo.com/f48c6008748c85752e9c3fc8d6dc5653.png
So far I have tried disabling Cool n Quiet and changing Windows power settings to Performance, but no effect. Newbie that I am, I have no idea whether the problem is with CPU-Z's display or my attempt at overclocking.
I'm running Windows 7 Pro and my motherboard is an ASUS M4A785TD-V EVO. http://gyazo.com/2c18848be602126c56e07c70f9d138c8.png
Any help would be much appreciated.
