13900K frequency locked at max (5.8/4.3)

Hey


I just set up my 13900k with an ASUS Z790 Prime-A motherboard and ive noticed in HWinfo that the core clocked are permanently stock at max even at idle (5.5/5.8 for P cores and 4.3 for E cores). It was initially noral boosting up and down but after a run of R23 its now stock at those value. I m wondering if this is normal behaviour for this platform/chips or is this usual. 

 

If this is usual, is there a way to fix this, I ve tried a bunch of fixes already and nothing happened. The things i tried includes:
- Reset BIOS settings

- Reset CMOS

- Turning C state, multicore enhancement, all the intel boost stuff on and off

- Changing the Asus tuning thing to all the possible settings


Thanks

Check your powerplan settings in windows, set it to balanced. It is probably set to high-performance. 

 

Edit - Do you have asus arua sync installed?

I usually set mine to high performance and then go change the minimum cpu percentage down to 0 percent so it’s not running full tilt 24/7.

If you want the cpu to lower the clocks when idle you have to enable EIST & manually set min/max cpu clocks in your bios, hope that will solve the problem 🙂
