My MSI GE700 laptop was working pretty well ok the previous days, but earlier after a few minutes of using it
The Intel Turbo Monitor shows 2.67GHz even at idle
My Windows 7 side widget also shows 2400MHz speed (since its the max it can show) and core usage is averaging about 30%
I turned off Intel Speedstep and didn't even help, the widget still shows 2400MHz core speed
I used CPU-Z and the core speed is 2660.4 MHz
Multiplier at x20.0
Bus Speed at 133.0MHz
I also used HWmonitor and the temps are
Core#0 68C/(66C (min)/70C (max)
Core#2 66C/62C (min)/69C (max)
I also used speedfan 4.41 and the temps are
Core 0: 49C
Core 1: 49C
Core 2: 46C
Core 3: 43C
the processor seems unstable since its maxing speed and strange enough, my task manager only says 28% CPU Usage
I'm not sure what the cause of the problems are
I'm using drivers from the CD that came with the laptop as well
Laptops specs:
Intel Core i5 450M 2.4GHz turbo up to 2.67GHz
ATI Radeon Mobility HD5730 1GB DDR3 Switchable graphics
2x2GB RAM
