CPU constantly running at 1.33 GHz no matter what

[HevukoSpace]

 I tried stress testing it via CPU-Z, but it wouldn't go past 1.33 GHz. My specs:

MSI 970 Gaming G motherboard

8 GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 

GTX 1050TI 4GB from PNY

1TB Hitachi Deskstar

FX 6300 at 3.5 GHz

 

I've tried flicking the slow mode switch on my motherboard and that didn't help.

Download HWInfo64 and check VRM temperatures

that or check in the BIOS.

No, download HWInfo. Speedfan is shit anyway

Alright, I have it installed. The temps right now are 16-17 Celcius.

seems impossible unless your ambient temps are very low?

what are your ambient temps?

What cooler do you have installed?

[HevukoSpace]

If by ambient you mean idling/web browsing (which is what I'm doing right now. I did the stress test yesterday and just started my PC up right now) it's 16-17 Celcius

I have an Enermax ETS N30

I was talking about VRM temperatures, find your motherboard and the highest temp is going to be VRM

ambient just means the temperature of the air in your room.

oh, silly me. 68 Celcius is the room temp

Um... do you mean Fahrenheit. Because you would be dead if it was 68 Degrees Celsius.

yeah, silly me . again

Don't worry, I do it all the time, Especially here on the LTT forums, as i am Aussie and i mostly use Celsius, and a lot of the community uses Fahrenheit.

Looking at your results, it seams that the core voltages are pretty low. Try turning off slow mode again. 

Also in the BIOS, set the CPU base clock a bit higher, just another 100mhz and see if your CPU results change. 

 

If your results change, where the CPU clock speed increases from 1.3 to what ever you set the base clock to, it means something is keeping the CPU from boosting it's clock speed. Probably something is getting way too hot.
