To 4690K Users Running Win10

I recently tweaked with an over clock on my chip and all of the sudden Im getting much lower than expected scores on Cinebench, I didnt over clock the chip much further, went from 4.5 to 4.6 and I have a feeling it may be Windows 10?

I tested twice to make sure the first one wasnt just a dud, the first attempt landed me 580 and the second 560. These dont seem normal.

During benchmarks, the temps and usage was completely normal, usage spiked up high as its supposed to and temps stayed @ 72C or below.

If you test it out please lemme see your result, maybe its just my chip?

Thats why Im concerned, currently 4.6GHz @ 1.225V, so its not like Im really pushing anything and readings are 100% normal after doing each test.

If youre on Win10 do a test yourself cuz Im curious, its either Win10, my chip, or malware maybe?

-Snip-

Have you opened CPU-Z while the chip is running Cinnebench to see if it throttles at all?

t's strange that it falls behind the stock one. Maybe the issue might be resolved by some updates when they are released,

Been monitoring it with Afterburner, nothing is out of the oridnary

Well as said above, its a possibility of three different things at this point.

Alright, I'll check my CPU to see if it preforms below average, very strange, Pretty obvious answer

503f418f66d227b168c9d09291e16a4d.jpgThese where my results... it seems my Overclock isn't working blaming windows 10 on that one everytthings alright. I will try a restart later today, but the 4790k is suppose to out preform the 4770k... so my chip is preforming a little bit below average, unless its because my turbo isn't working and it was only sitting @ 4.0GHz compared to its normal 4.9...

Well at least its not only me :/

On a good run my chip would be getting just shy of what you were scoring.

Okay, I did a quick PC restart for the sake of this, PC's uptime is now 5 minutes compared to 5 days owo my results where more like how my CPU should preform, but thats still with a 4.9GHz overclock

Yes, Still on 10, this would be the first time I've noticed a performance dip like this

Is there any chance that the 4690K score of 658 is from when you ran cinebench (overclocked) before you got windows 10 and it just carried over during the upgrade? It looks like your 4690K is running at stock speeds at the moment even with the oc set.
For monitoring I like to use HWiNFO64 although I'm not sure how well it works in windows 10. http://www.hwinfo.com/download.php You can select the sensors-only option when you run it and hide what you don't want to see. It should show you clock speeds, usage, voltage, and a bunch more. If everything still looks normal cpu wise then maybe update bios/drivers and whatnot.

Cinebench doesnt read overclocks.
