Hi absic. I am now convinced that my CPU is working fine. Below is what I get if I disable Cool and Quiet in BIOS. Also, if I display my System Monitor whilst playing an HD 1080p video on youtube, all six of the cores show a percentage that fluctuates, e.g. 10%, 27%, etc.
Thanks for all the help and advice received here, it has been very appreciated!
