Weberdarren97 I've tried to the bios and load optimized defaults but it didn't change a thing.
And Madmatt30 I was running a cpu benchmark from passmark at the time, to check if it was running at lower speeds because it wasn't under load
Let's see if your CPU is overheating or not.
1) Download and install
AIDA64 Extreme. I recommend using the download.aida64.com location.
2) Drop down the Tools menu across the top and select System Stability Test.
3) Select everything except for Local Disk.
4) Take a moment to explore the tabs and familiarize yourself with the program.
5) Run the test. Keep an eye on CPU temperatures as well as the CPU Usage and Throttling graph at the bottom. CPU Usage (usually yellow) should be at 99-100%. CPU Throttling (usually green) should not exceed 0%. If the CPU throttles, shut down the system to allow it to cool down.
6) If no throttling occurs, all the test to run for 10 minutes before stopping it. Navigate to the Statistics tab and find the information on CPU speed and temperatures. I recommend writing it down so you don't forget it. I would like to know the max CPU temp as well as max, min and average CPU speed.
