^ use wat window? go to bios and disable the Cool and Quiet.
if lazy,just make the power management to max performance (in windows)
oc, read 1st page for guides...

1. Read guide at the FP. It helps alot.
2. You get 1.61ghz because you probably on the Cool&Quiet.

965 is BE. So you just increase the multiplier. After that stress it to check whether it's stable or not.

@shah_ho_nam2

getting it higher? u started OC? try OC ur proc using the multi 1st...try to get the highest with the stock volt (set manually instead leave it auto)

just disable Cool'n'quiet in the bios and you will get the rated clock speed

For OCing you could use amd overdrive within windows as a start, play around with the multiplier etc

Thats why we recommend you to read some guide before start overclocking

Firstly go into bios find a phrase called "Cool & Quiet" ...dun put On or Auto, just set at "Off"

Secondly find a three letter combo called C1E, disable it also...

Now go inside windows 7 and go into Power Option... Power option is located in the Control Panel...

Look for High Performance or Always On settings...select it and press ok...

Look at CPU-z, does it change ur CPU speed?

u will not get a optimum result with that...u will get a a non-stress clock which is might not stable..+ excess amount of vcore added..and for sure that is not the max clock for the vcore added...
OC urself..

about the clock @ 1.6ghz..how about set the multiplier manually? set at x17 at ur bios...

nice rig there mate. 



1. disable those power saving feature as mentioned by sir antonio (c1e, c&q).
2. set ram divider @ 1333/1066 (from what i remember fxt doesn't like 1600 that much)
3. set cpu clock 200~300MHz (play w/ cpu multi only) higher than stock w/o touchin any voltage.
4. prime it (blend test), if stable, go higher (again higher multi). if not, increase vcore. keep repeatin until temp & volt is outta comfort zone (load temp > 55, vcore > 1.4/1.45v for me for 24/7 setup)
5. 965BE should be able to do 3.7/8GHz for 24/7 (that if u need that much of processin power)
ram tweakin:

1. set htt multi & cpu-nb @ 8x, cpu multi @ 13/14, vnb & vhtt @ 1.3v
2. set major timing @ 8-8-8-x-x (refer to timing table of ya ram in cpu-z), it is d loosest i'd go. cas 6/7 is preferred but not a realistic target for value unless ya ram is d9/elpida inside.
3. use memtest (dos based, press esc, 1 > 3 > 8 *credits to sir antonio for enlightenin me) to test d ram by setting higher htt, if ur on 1333 ram divider, u can try to play w/ htt 220~250, should be doable but depends on what chippies are used on ya corsair value. voltage wise i'd wouldn't advise to go above 1.9v for long hour of stress.
4. if memtest ok, go into windows & test w/ prime (blend). add vdimm bit by bit, by usin aod can save u some time to reboots.
5. timing wise i couldn't help much as i'm not so gud in ram tweakin. u can use cpu-tweaker to adjust main/sub timings but i'd say leave to main timing alone coz most of d time they dun like to be adjusted "on d fly" especially when u try to tighten 'em.

cpu-nb (a.k.a) imc tweakin:

1. once u know d mileage of ya ram, try to find d max cpu-nb (a.k.a imc) freq by just using d same setting from ram tweakin. increase imc multi by
2x/3x higher. prime (again, blend test) it, if stable, increase again, if not, add juices. unlike cpu tweakin, imc mileage discovery could be abit tricky. beside addin vimc, addin vcore mite help sometimes.
2. c3 should be able to do 2.8~3.0GHz (or more) for 24/7, voltage wise not so sure but i think should be safe ~1.4v (+/- 0.5v)


rojak tweakin (cpu clock + ram & imc freq):

1. now u know d max clock ya chip can take, max freq d ram (so do timing) & d imc can handle, try to find d sweet spot for all 3. as simple as that (sounds simple but not to me).
2. try to have more patience.

that's what i can think off now, otais pls correct me if i missed out anything/misleadin somewhere. i'm old & not havin enuf sleep, that's why i'm blur most of d time... especially in office... 

bro, we have same proc and mobo, but urs must b CE rite?
1st thing u must do is update the bios, last time i oso have same prob and  after update it,
can get 3.4Ghz 4sure!
OC?i dunno

no matter what setting u do in AOD, u still get 1.6ghz if bios no updated!

Bios update need to download from the mobo manufacturer website la bro.. Mana ada AMD kuarkan bios update
Look for the specific mobo model ur using then look under bios download

no matter what setting u do in AOD, u still get 1.6ghz if bios no updated!

so u got the full speed? and dont trust the windows rating...that is better than nothing...
u can try bench the proc using superpi...

for 9150e...few have it run at 2.6ghz... u can try...pump vcore as u will

Good to hear u got ur cpu running full speed bro

Thats not the end of the story yet.You should unleash to potential
Go First page.There are plenty of guides i've posted.

OT: Looks good..many AMD user now

Can die also ler, strike by lightning confirm dai like my old mobo
