3570k clock rate

[cheti]

Hey,
i got my 3570k stable on 4.5GHz and CPU-Z confirms it.

Altho, cinebench reads it at 3.4 and so do some other hardware reading programs.

Whats the deal ?

Its probably set to turbo up to those speeds under load. Otherwise it will stay at stock temp.

Windows doesn't read overclocked CPU's on SB/IB chips. Other softwares will read the speeds though, and you should have seen a difference in performance from 3.4ghz to 4.5ghz in cinebench.

I assume that score is normal then for 4.5 ?

Yep!
