Hi All,
I recently upgraded the BIOS of my EX58-Extreme from F4 to F12 after successfully oc'ing it to 3.82GHz. After the upgrade I reloaded the optimized settings, rebooted and changed to following parameters:
Turbo off, set to Standard
Turbo Boost: disabled
All power management features such as C1S and EIST were disabled as well.
Essentially, whatever the BIOS reported is what I was expecting to see in CPU-Z but I didn't. CPU-Z reports a multiplier of 10 instead of 20. It does, however, correctly report the base clock. Any ideas why that is? I even ran a stress test program (OCCT) to see if it would have an impact because I wanted to make sure that all PM features were in fact off. But the multiplier did not change. It never showed 20. Is it a bug with CPU-Z? I tried an older as well as the newest version but it did not make a difference.
Thanks for your feedback in advance!
