i7 8086k running @ 4.3ghz

[ChernobilChuck]

HI everyone,

 

So my new cpu is only running at 4.3ghz at load, which is odd because the default turbo should be higher, any ideas?

 

mobo is asus z370-f

in bios i only enabled xmp, and tried turning off multi core enchantment after seeing it wasn't going further than 4.3ghz

cpu is running at 50C while gaming(dark rock pro 4)

gpu is a 2080 and i game at 1080p, sometimes it went over 90% but sometimes under 60% depends on the game

fps was set to unlimited ingame

 

I would like it to go higher but without overclokcing(for now) just the so it reaches default turbo(5ghz on 1core, not sure about the allcore but it should be around 4.7 i think)

 

my assumption is something in the bios, but even after checking i couldn't find anything which would cause this.

 

Thanks thanks

Have a nice day

According to this website: https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/intel/core_i7/i7-8086k Your cpu should actually be running at 4.3 on all-core, though you are correct that single-core is 5ghz.

It's all core turbo is 4.3 so if you want it to go higher when using all core I would suggest overclocking since that is 8th e entire point of the cpu in the first place.

Ah, thanks, i just assumed because couldn't find it and the 9900k is 4.7 on allcores thats why i made my assumption

Thanks, i just assumed higher because of the 9900k, but i will probably overclock it later down the road, i don't need the extra at the moment i just wanted to configure it now so i won't have to worry about it until i will need more out of it.

Some motherboards have a feature that forces all of the cores to turbo at the same time, meaning you can hit 5.0GHz on all cores.

 

However that comes at a huge power draw and it doesn't drastically improve performance anyway:
