Title: Sniper m3 odd cpu utilization
Post by: Eyerex on June 10, 2013, 02:32:31 pm

Hello all just wondered about the cpu utilization when using windows 8 as it show as 4.06ghz in task manger, not overclocking or anything ?

Would think it would maybe go upto 3.9 GHz when turbo boost kicked in

Setup
Antec NSK2400 Case
Intel 3rd Generation Core i7-3770k
Gigabyte SKT-1155 G1 Sniper M3 Motherboard
Radeon HD6570
Antec High Current Gamer 620W Power Supply
Corsair 16GB 1600MHz CL10 DDR3 Vengeance Memory Kit

Hi Eyerex,  ;)

Welcome to the forum,

ntel® Core™ i7-3770K Processor
(8M Cache, up to 3.90 GHz)

But you have Intel Hyper-Threading Technology....

Maybe windows is sensitive.

It is best to use other software for measurements.
