That screams temp issue. Run the benchmark again with msi afterburner on and see what the cpu temp has for a max when it's done.

Is your processor running at an elevated clock speed? Replace the central processing unit and its cooler, and apply fresh thermal adhesive.

it appears the issue stemmed from the fact that the heat sink wasn't securely fastened; it was detached.
