DMI Pool Data not verifying

[ratedrsuperstar]

i've overclocked my e7200 to 3.57Ghz on Abit IP35-e but most times it does not verify the dmi pool data and so it shows 2.53Ghz in windows.how can i solve this or am i getting the same performance at 2.53Ghz when i've actually set it to 3.57

that you as an overclocker should know the difference in speed and there are tools to check it out...

but you could try resetting it to default and then overclock from scratch again...

ok will try seeing the speed difference

the speed difference is big.about 15 fps for a DVDrip movie in Vdub and about 7000MOPS in Sisoft sandra.even my RAM bandwidth gets reduced by 2GB/s.

thankfully the problem isn't there anymore it boots with 3.57GHz always.but i rolled back my bios to an earlier version.could that have been a prob
