Hello guys, so I did a nice install on my system P8z77-v lk, i7 2600k, GTX 670, 8GB Mushkin. Everything is fine for me except sleep and speedstep as my cpu remains at 3.4GHz, On system info it shows 3.4 and on hw monitor it's x34 which is 3.4, and that's all the time.

It is overclocked to 4.3 (43x100) in bios and totally fine in windows. Am I missing something ?

Do you have the patched bios installed? Also, is nullcpupowermanagement running? And have you tried stress testing your cpu to "make" the multiplier go higher?
 
System info will only ever show 3.4 unless you modify it. What SMBios are you using?

Interesting. Must depend on the board then? Hmm.





Anyways, what Smbios? MacPro3,1 etc?
 
Which SSDT are you using? Does it have P-states up to 42?
 
I found you often only get the lowest core clock reported or even reached.
So with my previous 4.2 overclock I only ever saw 3.8 as that was what one core was set too. That was both in HW monitor and in about My Mac. Once I set my cores to 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5 I used to see 4.2 reported and used in ML
In mavericks I actually see 4.5 used at times for single core operations in HW monitor although only 4.2 in about my Mac?
