HPZ800/2xX5675 both CPUs are operating at half speed.
Hello, Have you ever solved this issue?? I'm running into the same issue. (2) x5675 chips on an hp z800 board. plenty of ecc memory, ssd, etc.. 1000 watt power supply. Running a VM is horrid. Task manager shows 1.59Ghz (24/7!!!) I used cpu-z to put a load on processors, and both refuse to budge faster than 1.59Ghz. Its almost like, becuase im running (2) chips, something cuts BOTH clocks in half.... i put this system together, $29 board&cpu, $30 48gb ram... you know... I'd really like to know whats going on here... this thing shud HUM!! Win10Pro 64! any sort of insight is appreciated,
Could these devices experience thermal throttling? Have you verified the BIOS settings to rule out any previous caps? Edited August 14, 2022 by An0maly_76 Updated with additional details.
I don't have access to your current settings. Please check your Windows Power Plan options in Settings > System > Power plan.
The CPU consistently runs at 1.59GHz regardless of changes. BIOS now shows two processors at 3.07GHz. After updating the BIOS, I checked thoroughly but didn’t find any "cap" or similar setting. The power plan uses a bubble screen saver that activates after 10 minutes and shuts down after 20 minutes—no sleep or hibernation detected. What adjustments should I consider?
Big Stroonz!!! You're absolutely right! The issue was all along. Windows was set to 50% power at maximum, but changing it to 100% revealed a 3.2x to 3.3GHz boost under basic load. The whole machine picked up—definitely something about the processor from 2009/2010 with 24 threads should have run the OS noticeably faster than what I was seeing! You're spot on! T H A N K Y O U!!!
Power Plan should be configured for high performance. To simplify the setup, download this program: https://coderbag.com/product/quickcpu. Install it, then run the application. The highlighted sections in red represent key areas to focus on. Ensure the System Power Plan is set to High Performance. Adjust Core Parking, Frequency Scaling, Turbo boost, and Performance to their maximum values (100%). This should likely resolve your problem.
