MSI MPower - 3770K Overclocking (Turbo/Offsetting)

I've recently changed from my i7 2600k (Donated it to the GF's PC!) to a 3770k.

With my 2600k which was on a ASRock motherboard I used the offset method of overclocking and wanted to do the same with my 3770k which is on a MSI z77 MPower.

Anyway, all Ive done is increase the core ratio limit to 44 - following M&Ps guide, which works fine - except the CPU Speed/Multiplier doesn't under clock,
for a split second it may underclock down to 3.4 or 2.2 (we are talking a split second though) but for the most part is a constant 44 and I'm not sure why...

With my 2600k Power settings would cause this, however I've already changed these to no effect.

Any pointers? :)
 
I think we'll need to see some screen shots here. I built a z77 mPower rig a couple of weeks ago and own a GD65 (and have owned a z77 GD55 before that) so I'm pretty clued on up on MSI at the moment :P

Just things to get started though:
Have you got the latest BIOS?
C1E state is enabled?
CPU ratio is on auto but x44 is set in the CPU features setting?
