hello guys, i'm new here. i have searched the forum but couldnt find similar problem. I am deeply troubled with this.



I am using i7 4770 @ 3.40ghz. but recently i just noticed through some softwares (cpu-z, speccy, throttlestop, etc) that my cpu core speed is constantly at 798.10mhz, with x8 multiplier. As i know, it should be 3400mhz. does this mean my CPU isn't at its best so far? i looked this up, even 1st gen i7 is faster than mine. These are things i have confirmed:
- update bios
- reset bios to default
- change power saving to high performance
- intel processor diagnostic tool: i failed the cpu frequency test
- ran prime95, still 798mhz
- nope, never overheat. always below 40 degree.
- i never OC'ed or do anything weird.
have this happened before? do you guys have any idea? i'm ready to return it to vendor, but i just wanna make sure if this happened before or i missed something. please let me know if there is anything else you want to know. please help me. thank you very much fellas.
