cpu overclock doesnt work in windows

[glitchmaster0001]

Hi so i recently managed to get a stable 3.3Ghz overclock on my AMD Phenom II X6 1055T processor. i overclocked it using 8GB DDR2 667MHz ram. here are the settings that i set in the bios.

FSB= 236MHz

Multiplier= 14x

Memory Multiplier= 2.66x

North Bridge Frequency Multiplier= 8x

HT Link Speed= 1.8Ghz

Voltages= 1.334v on Core, AUTO on memory, northbridge, and southbridge.

with all these setting i should be getting roughly 3.304MHz on the cpu, 627MHz on the RAM, and 1888MHz on the NB and 1.8Ghz on the HT link

somehow when i go to cpuz in windows my multipler is at 4 and that gets me at around 944MHz on the CPU. why is it like this and can anyone help me on this? Thanks guys.

does it run at that speed under full load ?

no it runs at 944Mhz under load. its supposed to be running at 3.3Ghz

try disabling power saving features like cool n' quiet

I did all of that already and what's strange is that by setting the multiplier from the Max 14 to auto solved the problem
