I think I see what the problem is but I'm not sure how to fix it in uboot.
When I multiply 450 and 14745600, I get a number greater than 32 bits and the MSB is missed.

I could do an alternative calculation to achive the correct result but unless there is a good trick out
there I'll do that.

Thanks,
