Now I'm even more confused:
No matter, how much load I put on the system...CPU-Z always shows multiplier 5 while
the (completely crippled) BIOS shows 2.6GHz with no way to change or set anything in that area.
Now I have to look into external utilities to write directly to CMOS (not something, I particularly like)
I know that Windsor usually oc's by about 10%...but I would be all happy with just getting stock speed.

Or I have to find a BIOS upgrade....everest tells me, I have an Award BIOS 5.01..
What method would you recommend and which OC utility would be the most appropriate for this case????
