In his conclusion OBR says that Phenom has no overclocking. So that struck me as odd. 'Brutal' power consumption also seems overdone, although the difference in load is quite high.

OBR did you give Overdrive a try?
Definitely miscommunication -- to quote a Paul Newman movie "What we have here is a failure to communicate" my apologies.

I doubt you will see many hit 3.0 GHz. The > 230HTT may be a limit of the HTT rather than the mobo... as you suggested. So the HTT multi needs to be lowered.

@ORB, I don't read Czech -- could you explain to us if you tried changing the HT multiplier -- can it even be changed. Default is 9, but looking at your CPUID, it appears that the HTT is the culprit....
