Safan, I got a question, My OCCT (Beta) doesn't break 75% on the test. No matter what. Whats up with that?

PS. No matter what Clock speed

what do you have booting with the OS?

cpu is drawing too much power for the board...EPU and TM2 conflict result in less than full cpu utilization. a few apps pick up on the multi-switch...Crystalcpuid, but i cannot reember which revision...old cpu-z used too to, but newer version does not seem able to detect the drop of multi...
OCCT loads up fine on my G0, as does PRime95, but my B3, which clocks far better on other boards, is not capable of same speeds on this board due to this bug.

I have a B3 it has nothing to do with the chip. I've found that the more apps you have running the less cpu usage occt uses. I boot into vista with everything running and it doesn't go past 90% cpu usage. now if I boot into xp with only everest in start-up occt maxes out the cpu where as before when I used to boot into xp with everything running it wouldn't go past 90%.

as for the multi dropping on some bioses speedstep is enabled without an option to turn it off. With 0903 there's a speedstep option under the cpu section.
