Memory XMP profile seems to make CPU slow down
Go to solution
Solved by Jurrunio,
Read CPU frequency with software like CPU-Z or better, Hwinfo. From what I can observe with my 2600k system Windows Task Manager always treats BCLK as 100MHz, but this doesnt seem to always be the case.
125MHz thing is called a BCLK strap because back in X99 days, CPUs dont respond well to memory overclock through multiplier and raising BCLK is the best way to make higher frequencies run.
