How can I down-clock my V1200 to the x11 multiplier again? 2.17 defaults to x12.

Hi D,

All cores for V2-1200 are x12 clock speed since 4 years or so.
And so far I never heard of any one having any problem with this.

Therefore it sounds to me more likely that if you have problems they might be caused by other issues, maybe old drivers or other software problems.

I can offer you to look into this with you.
