Hi there,
I'm a user of flight simulators. The one I use is called Prepar3d, and it is a very CPU intensive software. Usually, it will run CPU #0 at 100% for the whole time. The remaining 7 CPU's (threadings) are kept under lower usage (~60-70%).
Because of this requirement, I would like to overclock my i7 7740x. I can make it run at 5 GHz. But, as it is operating around 80°C (sometimes higher) with a watercooler, I would like to keep the other 3 cores at a lower frequency (for example, 4.6 GHz).
But when I start my PC, it will keep the cores synchronized, with the lower frequency - in the case above, 4.6 GHz. The result is:
I tried several options in the BIOS, but I wasn't able to identify what is making these cores to be synchronized. So, how can I overclock my i7 7740x, so the clock of Core #0 is 5 GHz, while the other cores (#1, #2, #3) are kept at a lower frequency (in the case above, 4.6 GHz)?
Best regards
