• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

I'm a little confused.........

I just put together a new system and it has been running great but I wanted to try a little overclocking just to see what I could achieve but, to my horror, I found that I actually lost some performance. All I did was change my FSB from 133 to 143 to make my 2.8 run at 3.0. I ran 3dmark, doom3 and half life stress test. 3dmark lost 1000 points. Doom lost 6 fps and HL stress test lost about 10 fps.

How can this be???

I have really good Corsair XMS Ram, my PSU in Antec 480.
My vcore is 1.6.

I just don't get it!
 
reboot your machine & perform benchmarks right after reboot. see if you get better results.
