Hi Im new here, I been trying to force i5 4590 to run at 3,7Ghz under load.
I know that when 4 cores are active it will reach 3,5Ghz but ive read that some options on the bios can force all cores to run at maximum speed (37x100), for some reason i cant find "enhaced turbo" on mine which seems to be related (msi z87i gaming ac).
However when i enabled XMP profiles for the memories (G.Skill TridentX DDR3 2400Mhz) i see on msi command center 3700Mhz in short periods, but reduces to 3,5Ghz as soon a demanding task starts.
Things i already tried:
1) Disable turbo boost, set manually to 37x100 with dynamic mode, goes back to 3,5Ghz under load.
2) I tried core ratio limit but values can't go far than this:
core 0: 37, core 1: 37, core 2: 36, core 3: 35
3) I have edited long duration power and short duration power with no luck
The temps are right, i use a 3 heat pipes cooler with Noctua NF-A9 PWM, 28º on idle and 58º after 2 hours on prime95.
I made some pics of the bios options because i cant find which one could help here.
