I7 6700 (non k) 3,4 Ghz stock, but on up to 4,0 ghz in MSI Gaming apps Gaming mode?

3mileu · Dec 18, 2015

I was just looking around on my pc, and acidentally pressed the gaming mode button, and i cannot get rid of it. Cant reset or so. What wonders me is that it says that my CPU clock is around 3.8 ghz- 4.0 ghz, but looking at my cpu specs its only around 3.4 ghz at stock? Is MSI gaming apps gaming mode overclocking? Can i lose my guarrantee? I will lose it if i overclock, and i dont wish to. How to reset it/turn it off?

4.0Ghz is just your turbo boost on that chip. It's not overclocked.

It's normal. It's the turbo.

So, this means that i can just stay on "gaming mode" without worrying about overclock, or so and even keep the 4.0 ghz?

Yeah, you can leave it as is. The clock will change a little depending on how many cores are loaded, but these is absolutely nothing wrong with what you are doing.

Thx. for the help, i was just getting worried.

How can i be that i get this "turbo"? is it just included with the CPU, or is it because the motherboard?

It's part of the CPU. Check the Newegg product page specifications.
