upping this one last time in case some had an idea?

no matter stock or o/c'ed to 1400 it's hashing with a ratio (DiffS / Local Work) of 12-15% no matter either pool (only tried BTCguild and BTCdig).
API log shows very consistent numbers throughout the 16 miners (all within 1% of each other).

Local hashing rate (Cgminer status page) is on spec (200 stock) - (215/220 @ 1400).
