My 2500k/z68 rig's turbo boost just doesn't work quite right. The four core multipliers work perfectly fine, however 3/2/1 core mult's never take effect. For example, I'm currently set (through the bios) at 36/40/40/40, and regardless of the number of threads (testing with prime95) it never will never go over 36. It's not a cap on multiplier, it's a k processor, and besides I can change the four core multiplier to 40 and it works fine (albeit hot).
I'm running the latest bios revision (f4), and have cleared and re-setup the bios options several times.
Maybe I'm hitting a memory timing limit? I'm really pulling blanks here, if somebody can point me in the right direction it'd be greatly appreciated.
