I have P4 3GHz, overclocked up to 3.3GHz.

If i try use cpufreq scaling, then max frequency set only to 3GHz.

Code:

# cat cpuinfo_max_freq
3000000
# cat scaling_max_freq
3000000
# cat scaling_available_frequencies
375000 750000 1125000 1500000 1875000 2250000 2625000 3000000


How can I set 3300000 kHz?

writing in cpuinfo_max_freq give me access denied, and writing to scaling_max_freq nothing do.

...

sorry for badly English :)

The numbers listed are relative to your base CPUID clock speed, as far as I can tell.
Check your bogomips, should reflect the overclocked nature if your machine is at the highest speed.

My 2.4GHz P4 is o/c at 3.1GHz, it still says max of 2400000 in cpufreq but I get a bogomips of 6200-ish...
