ChumP :
Download and run the Intel Diagnostic Tool : https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/19792/Intel-Processor-Diagnostic-Tool-64-bit-
This program will put your CPU under 100 % load . Watch your frequency during this test and tell me what happens.
It did rise up to 3100MHz+ while stressed as expected. But I want to keep it that way so that I don't get any stutter while gaming, I've done it before.
Here's the full log.
