I overclocked my FX-8300 to 4.2GHz;Turbo core disabled(obviously) , C6 state disabled, Cool & Quiet disabled
I stressed the CPU with Intel Burn Test and it was perfectly stable, both CPU and MoBo temps were well within limit, but i noticed when the CPU usage goes to 100% on all cores it throttled all the way down to 1.4GHz, but only for a few seconds...
Then i ran Cinebench R15 and noticed that my score was barely 20 more than on stock settings.
Is all of this normal? Or is my CPU throttling it's performance for some reason and should i have problems playing games? (i heard that R15 and burn test push the CPU far beyond any realistic stress)
Thank you for your answers!
