I just OC'ed my Q6600 to 3.120ghz with a core voltage of 1.304...but my question is the core voltage and the core speed keep on adjusting themselves in CPU-Z. So what is going on here? How do I stop the core speed and core voltages from re-adjusting themselves? Do I need to give the CPU some more volts to work with or what? I'm stumped...please help.
what kind of motherboard do you have?
Edit: Just saw your sig your going to have to disable Vdroop in the BIOS, it ajusts the voltage to keep it safe but you dont want it while OC'ing
EVGA 780i SLI A1

What is vdroop called in the 780i's bios? I just looked through the entier bios nd didn't find a vdroop option. I read the entire overclocking guide stickied in the forum and disabled everything they told me to disable. Was one of those things i disabled vdroop? Sorry, but I'm a noob at OC'ing.
Yup, disabling VDroop will indeed solve your problem. I have the same motherboard.
@ The Sick: where in the 780i mobo is vdroop located...and is it called vdroop?
it ajusts your voltage regularly when its not OC'd its fine because you wont crash if theres not enough voltage or vice versa, I dont know where it is in the bios because I havent used it before ive got the 780i FTW
