I need assistance right away.
I have an Intel Core I7-7700k and was playing GTA5. It felt a bit slow, so I checked my task manager to see if any processes were using too much CPU. I found it was only running at 0.80GHz while it should be around 4.20GHz. I tried resetting the BIOS, but that didn’t help. I also attempted to enable turbo boost, but it failed. I looked into driver updates in the BIOS, but everything was up to date. I checked the fan headers and everything seemed correct. I’ve tried almost everything, but I still can’t figure out why the performance drops so drastically. Please help me.
Have you verified the thermal readings? (Recommended tool: HWiNFO64)
Install HWiNFO64, select "Sensors only" upon launching, and check the CPU temperatures.
I located the processor temperature, which is currently 27 degrees Celsius.
