Fx-8350 Core speed not right.

[Hezork]

Hello guys, so the core speed of my FX-8350 its like this http://linustechtips.com/main/uploads/monthly_03_2015/post-155781-0-50286800-1425170289.png, 1399Mhz and it should be 4000 as normal. How can i fix this ? Any option on Bios ?

It could be an error, check what your bios says  

[Tim Drake]

Try checking your BIOS settings or resetting your BIOS.

Could be an error like everyone else is saying...

No mate it should be always 4k, and when i play games he dont go up, he stays always on 1399, ive seen ppl on the internet with him on stock doing nothing on 4k core speed. All ppl i have seen is 4k on stock doing nothing on windows

First of it's a processor and not a guy.

Second: Check bios settings and check cpu load + temperature.

Third: I am pretty sure 8320-8350 goes from 3800 or 3900 up to 4 thousand something. It's ranging from something to something, that's how turbo boost works

Fourth: That voltage is pretty low, is it always like that?

I think 1.2 or something under is normal so that seems lower than usual to me.

Yes the voltage is always like that sir.

Isn't this because its idling? Clock speed will lower if he isn't doing anything.

[Sintezza]

disable cool N quiet in the bios.

can mostly be found in the CPU configuration section.

[topsu]

Go to windows power settings and set your Power saving plan to Performance

[vitor_cut]

Go to windows power settings and set your Power saving plan to Performance

that or your bios have a problem and could not load the proper setting on boot and activate a "safe mode", reset your bios to default settings, or your mobo vrm's are in pain.

[Doobeedoo]

It's idle, check again and while at it keep moving mouse fast, it will jump.

[Priller]

It's idle. Idle speed will be FSB x 7.

That only matters if he was overclocking which it doesn't seem like he was .."Fx-8350 Core speed not right"

.

But it shouldn't do this any ways, it's job is to only lower cpu performance when the workload isn't big.

 

But yes, I know that it's not always doing it's job.

[c0d0ps]

Do you have default settings in bios? 

If not you should switch back to normal/default and then try again. 

 

(Remember to keep the ram on it's right frequency too)

turning the cpu speed to 1.3GHz on idle, is exactly what cool n quiet does.

Its a powersaving feuture.

 

seems like you have no idea what cool n quiet is lol.

Cool and quiet doesn't not just turn the clock speed down to (exactly) 1.3 ghz on idle.

I have cool'n quiet almost all the time on but I never have that problem.

 

It seems like you have no idea what it means the way you were describing it ..

And I have already written that it reduces processor power aka downclocks when it is under non heavy work load(s).

 Yeah, sounds like I completely wrong on this. Perhaps I thought about potatoes or trees when I wrote this.

Cool n quiet enabled and CPU/NB voltage in offset mode, exaly does downclock a FX8350 to arround 1.4Ghz..

If he disabled cool n quiet, then the cpu will run on its stock speeds of 4.0GHz on idle, and turbo´s upto 4.2Ghz on load, if AMD turbo core is enabled.

 

Just check "op´s" printscreen.

 

According to his printscreen its totaly normal the way it shows up there.

Disabling cool n quiet will solve this.

Next to that, he can also set the CPU/NB voltage to manual mode, and set a static number if he likes to.

 

I have a FX8350 more then 2 years, i wouldnt start a battle

"i wouldn't start a battle" => "seems like you have no idea what cool n quiet is lol."'

Still you post such an arrogant reply.

 

The cool n quiet does not downclock to exactly anything. 

If you have any proof you should provide it instead of just acting like this.

I haven't seen any proof of anything you've been saying yet and I haven't seen anyone or anything else saying that cool n quiet downclocks to an exact number, I am fairly sure that you are making this up.

 

"If he disabled cool n quiet, then the cpu will run on its stock speeds of 4.0GHz on idle, and turbo´s upto 4.2Ghz on load, if AMD turbo core is enabled."

You do know that they design it so it's supposed to be able to run at stock speeds with default settings like cool n quiet combined with AMD turbo core enabled?

And like 90% of the time (at least) it works like this.

Just admit it, you want to keyboard fight me so you can (try to prove) that you are right/superior :-)

 

Anyways, I'll not argue with your more, I've written what I needed.
