Hiya! Just completed my first build this morning and was checking CPU-Z to check if my i7 3770k was running at stock speeds and it was low.
Way low.
1.6ghz to be exact.
So my question is why?
Is this speedstep? If so how do I turn it off?
If not what could be the problem?
Here's my build...
Mobo: MSI Z77 Mpower
CPU: 3770k
SSD: Samsung 830 256gb
RAM: Samsung 16gb 30nm RAM
Optical: Asus 24x DVD-RW Burner
PSU: Seasonic 750X 80+ Gold
OS: Windows 7 64bit Home Premium
GPU: MSI GTX 680 Lightning (not installed yet)
