Windows 10: CPU FREQUENCY NEVER DROPS DOWN

Hi everyone i recently bought a laptop with an I7 8gen cpu.

The problem is that windows keeps my cpu frequency at 4 even when idling.

I open up chrome and the temperature rises up very fast.

Whwn I have the power saving option on it doesn't happen. I'm sure that it's a problem regarding frequency frequency rate

INCORRECT CPU FREQUENCY READING

Hello Muhammad,

CPU usage depends on the applications that are open to your device. To isolate the problem, we suggest that you answer the following questions:

• Can you include a screenshot of the CPU reading?
• Have you tried performing a
  clean boot to eliminate software conflicts?
• What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

Looking forward to your response.

 

Overclock cpu max frequency constantly changing in task manager

Hi,

I'm overclocking my Intel 8700k to 5Ghz and every time I check the current frequency in task manager the max is constantly changing. I have high-performance power settings on windows enabled and I have also disabled CPU state and Intel SpeedStep in the BIOS.
I also noticed that when using other tools to display my GPU and CPU performance they show my CPU max frequency is exactly 5Ghz, why does Task Manager constantly display a constantly changing frequency?

Any suggestions?

Much appreciated

 

Wrong CPU reported?

The CPU Freq reading is normal as the CPU frequency Steps depending on the load

If you install Conky, you can see on there the frequency stepping up and down depending on what the handset is doing.
