Answer : Problem: What is Spread Spectrum in the BIOS?

The CPU clock pulses are supressed, which can make the CPU run cooler, but at the expense of performance. Since you are overclocking, you obviously want as much performance as you can get, and enabling this feature would hurt your performance...which is why your manual says to disable for better performance!
