Clock speed/bus/DRAM frequency reporting wrong?

[Craig321]

I'm not sure if this is since Windows 8, or since some sort of update (I haven't checked CPU-Z for ages), but my CPU clock speed, bus and DRAM frequency are all reporting weirdly.

I'm running the latest version of CPUZ. AIDA is also reporting not quite right clock speeds.

When I first built the system the CPU would sit at 1600MHz exactly when idle, and 3800MHz when under any sort of load. The memory would sit at a perfect 800MHz and the bus at 100MHz.

Any ideas why this would be happening? I don't have any reliability problems, it's solid under prime95, but I just find it a bit strange that my clock speeds would read slightly wrong.

I updated the bios today and reset everything, but that didn't change anything :/

Thanks.

Try a previous version....

... on the newer one my bus speed fluctuates (it's hard set in the BIOS), only by a fairly small amount but it never shows the CPU clocking down.

1.60.1 works nicely, thanks.
