Sorry if this has been resolved before but I have a questions regarding multipliers and why OSx doesn't always follow the MB and CPUs stages and kind of randomly picks its own.
My system is:
Asus p6t Deluxe v2
intel 990x 6 core processor overclocked to 4.41 ghz
CPU bios settings:
c1e - on
Speedstep - off (ON results in 1800 GB score and the multiplier still only hits 27 during stress testing)
c6, c3 and c1
a20m - off
My DSDT supports up to 16 threads
The Problem:
my multiplier wont go above 27 for 3.6. I don't get it. x58 don't need an ssdt so why is it not reading the multiplier tables right and stepping up to 4.4? It does on the windows side.
PS: Lion saw my chip as a 6 core xeon. Mountain Lion says 3.6ghz unknown.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I want to break that 20k mark and squeeze out that remaining 800mhz
