Re: Over cpu limit? slower fps! please help

You've overclocked the CPUs from 1.4 to 3.1GHz? Wow! What method did you use to overclock? Are the ratios good?

What kind of PSU and cooling system do you have? Are your voltages stable? What temperatures do you get at idle and during gameplay?


EDIT: I've merged your 2 threads because they're probably both related to the overclock. Have you tried running at default speeds and default BIOS settings?

Clear the CMOS via the jumper on your Motherboard. Read your motherboard's manual to locate the jumper.
