I updated from f8 to f9a in order to fix a sleep issue while OC. It did resolve this issue however I did notice through cpu-z that the multiplier for the processor and stuff is not dropping to like 12 like it did before when just sitting in the OS and its not doing something. You know how the system drops down when at idle until one puts a load on it. even though its ar 1% usage cpu-z is showing its running at 21x all out and never drops down.
Below are my settings, that have been thoroughly tested to be stable when I was using f8 bios.
