You're not supposed to use turbocore to overclock. And besides turbocore will only take effect when the cpu is under load. And on top of that it can't be measured using software because it applies a dithering algorithm to the PLL.

Just look up some guides for overclocking on amd overdrive on google and try some of them.
Yeah i tried to overclock it doesn't let me get anyhigher the meter stays @ 2.7 but when i try to downclock it, it lets me wierd.
What exactly did you try to do?
Raise the CPU Core multiplier..
I've never used amd overdrive personally since the last time I had an AMD cpu it didn't exist (excluding my laptops which I would never OC). So I can't offer too much in the way of direct assistance. I would recommend that you follow a guide if you aren't already. All I can think of is turn off turbocore, restart the system, and run prime95 to make sure that it's at full load. Your motherboard may be locked in such a way where you cannot overclock via overdrive.

You could also try K10stat.

Also I just realized that you have a 1045T. Which is a locked cpu. Which means you have to overclock by raising the base clock, you cannot raise the core multiplier above the default. What is your base clock (reference clock or HTT) currently set to?

[Image: guuu.png] idk but this is how its setup
You should really post a high resolution version next time. I can barely read that and I have amazing vision.

Change the HT ref. clock from 200 to 233. That should bring the core clock up from 2.7 GHz to 3.15 GHz.

Yeah idk i think im out of luck on this one its the HT ref.clock is locked and greyed out and is not movable.
Then yeah you're going to need a new motherboard and HSF in order to overclock. You might as well get a new cpu while you're at it.

What country do you live in if I might ask?
