Just upgraded my Ram to 3000mhz that is certifed with my MB an x99-ud3 last upgrade for this old workhorse

main question i know from Linus and Jayztwocents but when i loaded the default optimized settings for the motherboard since i wanted a fresh settings since the old ram was OC from a stock ddr4 2133mhz kit

the base clock for the CPU jumped to 100.03 Mhz with the multipler being 125 i assume that is normal as i got faster ram and enabled XMP settings for the ram so i had to redo the CPU over clock to i think 37 for the core making the

CPU speed 4.625 Mhz and first time me seeing this and yes i am somewhat new to most of this been playing with CPU OC since 2014 when i built the system with a 5820k got the current 5960x to 4.6ghz stable with the old ram with a Cinibench score of 4026 and with the new ram kit and some undervolting with 1.315v VCrore i got a 4029 with a 4.625ghz OC

 

and my second question is that is this normal for task manager before i upgraded my kit task manager would show the correct clock speed but had to open hardware manager to verify clock speeds and Cosair link was up so i could have the AIO fans at 100% just for benchmarking but normal use its set to quite mode is there a way to fix task manager to have it show correct speeds if not then that sucks lol

 

BTW i have a three monitor setup and Cinibench was running on the main monitor and had to crop the screen shot dont need everyone seeing my main desktop lol
