Restart PC, Press Delete while booting up. You will enter Bios.
Under Advanced BIOS Features
CPU Enhanced Halt (C1E) [Disable]

This will disable the speed step. Your CPU will run at 8X at all times. Your picture shows 6X because at idle or low usage the CPU with speed-step enabled drops the multiplier down to save energy.
