I'm not that computer savvy, so everything I've tried has been through google searches and reading through the motherboard manual. I'm at a loss and hope someone here can help.
Bios was updated because windows was unresponsive (laggy) and as far as I know the build should be able to handle itself pretty well. After the bios was updated the CPU was stuck at 2,4Ghz no matter what task is performed. Stresstesting shows no difference in CPU speed.
We are 6 people working together that experienced the same issue, one re-installed windows after bios update as well, but it made no difference. All locked at 2,4Ghz. All have the same builds as well.
Here's what I've checked so far:
- CPU-Z stresstest before bios update (approx. 350 single core)
- CPU-Z stresstest after bios update (approx. 300 single core)
- Battery settings set to high performance (100% on low and high)
- CPU temeratures checked (40 degrees celcius)
- Bios has turbo enabled (but I have no access to advanced bios settings)
- Bios c-state set to (C0/C1)
- Windows is updated
I suspect maybe some sort of power saving option in the BIOS could be locking the CPU speeds. Google tells me p-state settings might be the issue, but I can't access them in Bios (advanced settings are not there).
