Just got an E6750 and am overclocking it...but when I view in CPUZ it shows default frequencies and flickers to the overclocked frequencies every once in a while. What gives? Using version 1.40.5

You have EIST enabled in the BIOS, disable it and that will fix the "problem".

Not sure what EIST is or where to find it exactly....I have a P5k. Havn't seen it in BIOS.

EVEREST isn't displaying correct info either. The clock speed is correct, but the multiplier says 16x (uhhhhhh), and the FSB fluctuates and displays the wrong info.

It is because of the option Enhanced Intel Speed Stepping Technology (EIST) is on. It drops the multi on your processor when it isnt in use.

Disable it and it will stop, trust me.

There is no EIST. I'm using ASUS P5k vanilla motherboard.

Found it and disabled it, made no difference. CPU-Z still jumping around.

You should look around the BIOS, make sure anything called EIST, SpeedStep, or C1E are disabled. Perhaps someone with an IP35 will know specifically where it's located in the BIOS.
