Performance decreases significantly when under stress
Performance decreases significantly when under stress
I recently increased my FX 6300's clock speed to 4.3 Ghz and it has been running smoothly without any crashes. However, when I put the CPU under stress, the speed often drops back to 3 Ghz. I have turned off all power-saving options I could find, such as "Cool and quite" in the BIOS. Nothing seems to resolve the issue, and I'm starting to question whether it's even possible to fix this. Thanks in advance.
CountMike's questions about Voltage and LLC are noted. When increasing clock speeds and voltage, the clock speed can occasionally decrease to 1.4 GHz, which might be related to heat concerns.
