Windows 10: Task manager doesn't display CPU speed

It will show percentage, but no speed, it always stays at 0.00 and sometimes it'll jump to 0.01 or 2.70. Then immediately go to 0.00 again.

My system information if it helps:

task manager displays wrong cpu speed/utilization

Hi Jimmy,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I understand your concern and will be glad to help you.

Task Manager displays the programs, processes, and services that are currently running on your computer.

On the CPU section of the Performance tab, the actual CPU is now specifically identified in detail with the brand, the model number, the speed, as well as the number of sockets, cores, and logical processors.

Other third party performance monitor specifies the utilization and speed of the processor using different algorithms which differs from Windows Task Manager computations.

In addition, different algorithms are used to measure performance. For example, the algorithm used by Intel in its branded maximum speed is different than the algorithm used by Windows Task Manager to directly measure the speed of the CPU. You can use other
processor utilities, such as the Intel Processor Identification Utility or CPU-Z, for additional processor speed measurements.

Keep us posted if you face any issues on Windows in future. We will be glad to help you.

Thank you.

 

task manager displays wrong cpu speed/utilization



as can be seen, windows 10's task manager reports cpu speed as 3.26, where it is actually 4.13.

similarly, a multiplier of 28 will show a maximum cpu utilization of 80%.

the computer is running prime95, so it is definitely 100% loaded; this can be seen in various applications (e.g. intel extreme tuning utility, and many many others)

possibly the 125 bus speed is ignored? task manager seems to assume it is set to 100 in its calculations

is there a fix for this?

 

Task Manager console displays innacurate RAM speeds

I have the exact same specs as yours, but i hage a 850wat evaga powersupply and i am getting the exact same issue. Msi command center, speccy, bios, cpu z all show the ram speed as 1866mhz whereas task manager shows 1600. After some googling i have come
to known the default jedec profile on ur ram is what task manager see's even with xmp enabled. Some motherboards do not read the jedec profiles and display what ever stable speed u set ur ram at and task manager happly see's ur ram speed as its not defined
by the jedec profile. How to fix it i have no idea as i am a bit ocd about task manager showing incorrect speed and would like to have this fixed
