Hello, I just bought a new motherboard, and ever since installation my cpu is running at 3000mhz+ all the time, it no longer idles at 1600mhz. I'm not overclocking or anything, the fan speed is getting on my nerves because of this. Thanks!

I got it to lower its idle to 1600mhz using Power Settings in Windows. The fan RPM is still really high, I set the target temp to 45C and minimum 25% and it still has high RPM.
