Pastor William Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Greetings All, I have a Amd 4200+ and it usually shows a core speed of 2204.8 and a multiplier by 11 and sometimes fluctuates down. Now it stays as the one specified. Am I reading something wrong? CPU AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Cores 2 Threads 2 Name AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Code Name Manchester Package Socket 939 Technology 90nm Specification AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+ Family F Extended Family F Model B Extended Model 2B Stepping 1 Revision BH-E4 Instructions MMX (+), 3DNow! (+), SSE, SSE2, SSE3, AMD 64 Virtualization Unsupported Hyperthreading Not supported Fan Speed 1629 RPM Bus Speed 200.4 MHz Rated Bus Speed 1002.2 MHz Stock Core Speed 2200 MHz Stock Bus Speed 200 MHz Average Temperature 42 ?C Caches L1 Data Cache Size 2 x 64 KBytes L1 Instructions Cache Size 2 x 64 KBytes L2 Unified Cache Size 2 x 512 KBytes Core 0 Core Speed 1803.8 MHz Multiplier x 5.0 Bus Speed 200.4 MHz Rated Bus Speed 1002.2 MHz Temperature 40 ?C Thread 1 APIC ID 0 Core 1 Core Speed 1803.8 MHz Multiplier x 5.0 Bus Speed 200.4 MHz Rated Bus Speed 1002.2 MHz Temperature 43 ?C Thread 1 APIC ID 1 Thank you for yout help.

GoneToPlaid Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Modern CPUs are capable of speed throttling in order to greatly reduce power consumption when the CPU is mostly idle. Power management in Windows XP and 7, when set to any mode other than Always On, enables power management features for the CPU. Laptop, notebook and netbook manufacturers may also implement CPU power management options either in BIOS or via proprietary utilities installed on the computer.

Thank you Gonetoplaid, Yes I agree and acknowledge that is true and definately happens here, however, the speed from the time you start speccy to the end after hours of running stays stationary and the multiplier will change frequently. Under any stress from idle to running a stress test which in previous versions changed the speed with usage as well as the multiplier.
