Hi I recently downloaded i the "Intel Processor Identification Utility" and found that my cores were running at a lower speed then they were supposed to. I was just wondering of this is normal.

And yes did see the

1. Yes
2. Yes and if you any programs like intalling something, running a scan, or minimize an online game it will take your core speed

Check your settings within the BIOS. Make sure SpeedStep (EIST) and C1E are disabled. If that isn't the case, attempt to clear your CMOS.

iuno i just tested mine is running as expected

if you're on a laptop then maybe you have power saving options on which will cause a lower speed for CPU

It is called speed stepping, it idles at lower clock rates to save battery untill the power is needed, don't worry about it.

Also this only happens with laptop CPUs (Notice it was a Txxxx not a: Exxxxx or a Qxxxx).

Intel Enhanced SpeedStep is on desktop processors too...

But as Zarr and saf pointed out, without looking into the system BIOS, it's likely a power-saving feature.

thanks for all your replies

i was also wondering if it would be recommended to turn off the SpeedStep i know this would decrease battery life but would it be worth it?
