You're seeing speeds between 2-3 GHz despite using a stock cooler and a high-end motherboard and GPU. It might be related to the power supply—an 850-watt unit is more than sufficient for your 2600X, especially given current circumstances. Check your cooling setup and ensure it's properly matched to your components.

The processor adjusts its operation based on current workload, reducing activity when performance isn't required to conserve energy. This behavior can be modified.

While working on Folding@Home, I'm around 40% used up.

appears to function as expected with standard boosting and timing.

It isn't completely loaded, which means it doesn't need extra effort to handle the job quickly since it can work faster with a lower clock speed.

It's important to mention that one of the main components is operating at 4GHz in the image he provided...

Testing near maximum utilization could boost clock speed, but verify with your system's limits. There are tools and software available to monitor performance under heavy load.

When not in full use and just a single core remains, that core is the only one that will increase to that specific frequency.

uses prime95 or comparable tools. once started, it processes across all cores near the base clock speed. if it fails to recognize it as a power virus, you can proceed with Cinebench R15 or R20 instead.
