They are showing up, right there in the screenshot you posted next to frequency.
Unless I am not understanding you correctly?

Pretty sure its turned off, I tried doing prime test to see if they changed - they didn't

yeah fsb was changed to 284, where does it show 2.5GHz?

Ok, ive tried it again, upped fsb to 289MHz and made sure speedstep was off, here is the result

well i just hit the save and exit option, asume thats the same thing, the changes are saved when I restart and go back into bios also. And the correct clock speed shows up on the initial loading screen.
