Hi all,
After thinking that one of my cores is broken or something running hotter than the others, I used CoreTemp to change the Tj Max value to +1000 to see how hot it will let me go on a stress test, and apparently Core 0 is running at 1065 degrees while the rest run at 65. The problem is, once it DOES hit that amount, the CPU clock fluctuates between 800MHz and 3214MHz as well as the voltage dipping and the temp doesn't rise any higher. Its obviously an attempt to cool the CPU down, but its not needed as its a false reading.
It is very noticeable in games as they start to stutter lag when the core speeds dip.
How can I fix this?
