Also, if somebody knows how those CPUs are sensing temperature, it could be helpful too. I would like to finally fix it, if somebody has any ideas how. I actually used this PC for a nearly whole year already and it always been this way.
There's seemingly nothing wrong with the way I built this computer, it's just some reporting weirdness. I replaced thermal paste yesterday with Cooler Master Mastergel Pro (older version) and I definitely plugged in fan (although heatsink like this might be good enough for passive cooling). I touched heatsink during stress test and it was between cold and warm, nothing like when I used with FX 6300. Honestly, this looks really hopeless to me and I know for sure that CPU doesn't get hot. I tried to use cTDP settings (65W and 45W), but those seem to be broken. I tried to disable power saving settings like C6 state or C&Q and nothing really changed. I tried to downgrade UEFI version from latest FE to FD and FB, but nothing changed. The motherboard doesn't have any undervolting settings either and I never overclocked this CPU. I checked my UEFI config and there are normal power saving settings enabled, as well as turbo settings. I tried to force such scenario with OCCT, where I set up a single threaded stress test, but instead all cores were at 3.9GHz. Also computer doesn't looks like it ever reaches turbo clock speed. I noticed some fps drops during games and other random slow downs in this system.
Anyway, I wouldn't worry about misreported clock speeds during stress testing, but it looks like they may indeed be correct. I built this computer from my spare parts, so that's why specifications are weird. I know that my heatsink config is more than capable cooling this chip, as it handled FX 6300 at 5GHz under 59C. Scythe Mugen 4 PCGH heatsink with one Noiseblocker Blacksilent XL-P 120 fan set at normal speed Real temperature, which is reported under motherboard section as CPU temperature is actually around 20C during idle and 32-35C under stress.įractal Design Define R4 with both stock fans at 5V But the problem here is that temperatures are ridiculous and definitely not real. During OCCT stress test or wPrime 1024M run CPU package quickly reaches over 75C and soon I can see it dropping clock speed from 3.9GHz to 1.7GHz or at least it shows that. Even during idle, what software reports as CPU package is very high. I found this problem while I was monitoring PC with HwInfo64 software. What happens is that CPU is misreporting temperature. I'm having a weird CPU reporting problem with my computer.
