[QUOTE="plat, post: 1042397, member: 74969"] May not be applicable here but sometimes you might wonder if those Spectre/Meltdown mitigations might be affecting general cpu performance. I know it does a bit for my Coffee Lake cpu--a little bit. I now have these disabled in the Registry. Is this little app still relevant? [URL='https://www.grc.com/inspectre.htm']InSpectre[/URL] Variations in silicon might also be a factor, I guess. By the way, my cpu claims it can go to 5.0 GHz, but only on two cores at a time. And HWiFO64 does document that. On all cores, it hits 4.8 GHz. [/QUOTE]
