I just installed a Phenom 8650, and upon bootup, I went into my BIOS to have it tell me that the chip was operating at some insane voltage, 1.8 or something. I know that can't be right, because I'm stress testing for instability (at stock for now) and I'm maxxing out at about 40C.
I'm really confused though, because coretemp says I have a dual core, CPU-Z tells me I have an opteron, and my BIOS tells me I'm killing my chip.
Reset CMOS?
Thanks guys.
Also, what kind of overclock formula should I look at for this chip?
The highest multiplier is x11, and I'd like to get to 3.0 stable. That's my goal anyway.
