Hi all, 
 
I presently checked my CPU-Z just to see how my system is performing and i noticed it is locked at a multiplier of x37. In bios I have it set at and on the top of the bios it shows a setting of x42. If i disable speed step or turbo the multiplier drops to stock x32.  My windows performance is set to high power with min/max both at 100% for processor. My system is liquid cooled and temps are low. When i run Linpak test and put CPU under load it does not change the multiplier. Does anyone have any idea what could be going on?
 
Thank you,
 
Mathieas

    Thank you both! 
     
    That worked!
     
    One issue, after bios update, the first boot i got a checksum error, i went right into setup and made my settings changes and the checksum error did not return. Any ideas?

    You're welcome..The one-time checksum error is normal after updating the BIOS, no worries there, carry on.
