    Is My CPU Dead? 5820K Only Utilizing 7% @4.3ghz

    I've ran several programs, photoshop, vegas, and it ramps up to 4.3Ghz, but only has a 7% load. Even when i right click, it can take a few seconds before a full menu comes up, and thats everywhere. Im hoping its just a setting somewhere that needs changing, but i dont know where to start

    Thanks for the responses :) That's a ah heck lol i have another question, so if the issue relates to possible 'lots' being not compatible, then you could have the same issue if you purchased 2 x 32gb quad channel kits? If that's the case that's is extremely lame on a manufacturer's part

    pvr has its own power, went through everything in the device manager 2 days ago and doubled checked all drivers due to witcher 3 crashing & bsoding my 980, managed to find a few which fixed that issue, but this problem still exists
