Hi There,

It sounds like you might have EIST & C1e enabled in your BIOS options, They ruduce the clock speed and voltage when the CPU isn't under heavy load.

Try turning them off and trying CPU-z again.

If you put a load on the cpu (Such as Orthos / prime 95 / 3dmark) you will see the multi jump back up to 9x.
