Heya,
I am having issues with my CPU underclocking when it shouldn't be, and it's becoming problematic with performance.
It's a dell xps 9550 running windows 10 home with:
I7 6700Hq
16gb ddr4 ram
Gtx 960m
4k display
Samsung 850 500gb msata ssd
1tb HDD.
I ran into the problem running dolphin emulator, the frame rate was abnormally low. I checked the CPU usage was stuck at 30% and everything else was very low (usage). I checked in cpu-z and the frequency was at 800MHz.
I then stressed the CPU with the CPU burner in firmware and the same thing happened. I then switched to prime 95 and same again.
The performance setting is set to performance and the max CPU usage is set to 100%.
I then tried disabling speedstep and this didn't change anything.
I also contacted the dell support staff and they've been next to useless. I've updated my BIOS and this still hasn't done anything.
Any ideas?
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks,
Tom.
