Graphics clock speed

[TecH|ph]

Hi,

 

So, I've recently bought a new PC which contains AMD A10 X4 7870K CPU so I have integrated graphics card. I can see on CPU-Z and AMD OverDrive that my GPU is running on less than half core speed(currently on 354.55 MHz), it should run on or around 866 MHz right? 

 

I tried to run some games, but clock speed was still on the same level.

 

Another thing, I have 8 gb of ram, BIOS is showing only 4 gb. Windows shows: "installed memory: 8 gb (3.46 gb usable)."

 

My configuration: 

Motherboard: MSI A68HM-P33 V2
Processor: AMD A10 X4 7870K (3.9GHz)
Memory: 8 GB DDR3 1600 MHz
Graphics card: AMD Radeon R7
Power Supply: REAL POWER 500W

 

Help needed

well is it idle?

 

do you have 32 bit windows?

It's on 354.55 MHz no matter what I'm doing, playing six games at once or doing nothing.

 

I have Windows 10, 64 bit

The ram issue is due to you using a 32-bit OS

 

The integrated graphics isnt entirely the best thing to use, a onboard graphics will use some of the CPU processing power, as the graphics are built into the cpu for amd cpus

I'm using 64-bit OS*

So there's nothing to do with this?
