Task Manager Clock-speed Confusion

Hey guys,

 

So I have been having some stability issues since my last bump in overclock and I noticed something kinda interesting.

HWMonitor is reporting clock-speeds as 4290Mhz on all cores but when I look at task manager it says 3.82Ghz. For means of trouble shooting which should I believe?

 

Cheers,

 

Ben.

Task manager isn't reliable way to check current clock speed. You should use CPU-Z instead.

Thats why I like HWMonitor, it gives each core individually, to the Mhz too. I'll just stick with that then.
