[SOLVED] 10400f can't stuck in 3.98ghz

[Classy666]

Im runing a 10400f on a B460M A-pro
2400mhz ram
550w psu
Cooler master cpu cooler

Anyway

The cpu cannot reach 4.3ghz as it sais in intel's website and it gets stuck in 3.98ghz in full load in cinebench and video games
28°idle 70°max
Mobo's xmp is off cuz i couldnt turn it on with 2400mhz ram
So please tell me how can i hit 4.3 ghz

4.3Ghz is single core max.
https://www.intel.com/content/www/u...-12m-cache-up-to-4-30-ghz/specifications.html
"Max turbo frequency is the maximum single core frequency at which the processor is capable of operating using Intel® Turbo Boost Technology and, if present, Intel® Thermal Velocity Boost. Frequency is typically measured in gigahertz (GHz), or billion cycles per second."

4.3 is a single core, not an all core boost. 3.98 +/- a few mhz, sounds about right, for an all core boost.

Disable all but 1 core in bios, and then you can literally see it.

Intel's advertised turbos have been a gimmick for a long time. If you look up the specs of this cpu, and other Intels, from their own site, do you notice how there's only ratings for single core turbos, and none for multiple cores active?
You have to look elsewhere to see how it behaves - see the chart here: https://www.techpowerup.com/review/intel-core-i5-10400f/20.html

Thank you
So i use my pc for gaming mainly
Do you think i should keep it like this 3.98ghz all cores? Or change to single

 

[logainofhades]

Leave it as it is. Single core gaming has been dead, for a long time now. Even quad core gaming is starting to die off.

 

[Phaaze88]

The max boost is affected by how many cores are active. There's nothing to... 'keep', or no reason to fix it at anything.
Leave it be

all normal ops...; nothing to see here.
