Ok, so some background first. This is my first post as I've been reading almost every thread I can get my hands on. I built my first hackintosh, have it running 10.8.2 stable. My specs are asus sabertooth z77, i5 3570k, 16gb ram, 128gb ssd. Using hd4000 currently. (waiting for taxes to truly "finish" the build.) So its up and running, about the only thing that doesn't want to work is airplay, but airparrot works so I'm happy with that. So here is my issue, I have flashed the bios, deleted the correct ktexts, nullcpu, and appleintel, (dont remember the whole things off the top of my head) but basically all seems perfect. Now the weird thing is no matter what I do to OC it, nothing works. I dont mean it crashes, I mean the actual cpu never overclocks, it still reads 3.4 in bios. The only time it reads any higher is when I do auto overclock and it turns up the bclk to 103.1 and the cpu reads 3.5. These are readings from hwmonitor and intel power gadget, even when using cpu test. I can overclock it in the bios, it just never seems to actually translate to doing what its supposed to do. Is there something dead simple I am missing here? i've never had a issue like this before when attempting to overclock.
Thanks!
