Hello all. I am using AMD Overdrive to overclock my CPU(AMD X4 760K) but when I have it overclocked my current frequency keeps dropping down to 1797mhz and then shooting back up to 4700mhz my target overclock. I have stability test it at this speed and its seems to be okay although I am very new to overclocking. Could anyone explain this and possibly give me some tips on overclocking this CPU? Thanks

CPU: AMD X4 760K
GPU: Gigabyte GTX 660 OC edition
