Hi all, just noticed my cpu keeps dropping from 2.8ghz to 1.9ghz and seems to shoot back up on load, speed step is disabled in bios, is this normal?

 

[Psycho666]

you probably still have Eist or C1e or Vanderpool tech (or something like that) enabled.
those things drop the multi when not needed.

I disabled C1e but the speed is still dropping to 1.9 ghz, is there anything els I should try?

 

[Josh81]

are you sure enhanced intel speedstep is off

if you are sure both are disabled then update your bios

if your bios is up to date idk what to tell you

 

[ukgun]

yep defo both disabled and latest bios, also I noticed Vcore keeps dropping to zero too, might have a bad chip, I have O/Ced it a little now and will see how it goes, everything seems to be working fine

 

[Josh81]

did you disable c-state tech

Hi Josh, I didnt see that setting in bios, where is it?

 

[R00ST3R]

It's under: Advanced-->CPU Congifuration-->Scroll all the way down, it's at the very bottom of the options list.

 

[ukgun]

the last 2 options in that menu are cpu TM function and Execute disable bit, I didnt see c-state tech, I have the latest bios 2101 but it seems to be stable now I have O/C'ed it
