MoBo: Asus M5a97 evo r2.0
CPU: Fx 8350
I used to have a fx 6300 CPU, and I overclocked it just by changing the CPU ratio to 20.5 to give 4.1Ghz stable. However, it did downclock to 1.4G/1.5hz when idle.
Now I have 8350, again I tired to change the CPU ratio to 21 and it did clock to 4.2Ghz, however, it won't downclock when idle. When I leave the CPU ratio on auto, I get about 4.1Ghz on load, jumping to 4.2Ghz (on few/random cores due to turbo I guess). And it does downcock to 1.4/1.5Ghz when idle. What am I doing wrong?
All other settings are default. Cool n Quiet and C6 states are at default values (enabled).
