Cpu not running at full speed!

Sunehildeep · Nov 13, 2015

i get stutters in every game i have and buy. they are like freezes less than a second for every 2-3 seconds.help please.when i had my previous gpu-zotac nvidia geforce 8400gs everything was working smooth without stutter.now my gpu is gainward nvidia geforce gt 610 and i have stutters in every game even in low end games.i can play cod bo II at highest settings. all my games have high fps but below 50fps. why am i having these stutters and please i beg you not to tell me to upgrade. here in our country everything is very much costly and i am not that rich. please help!!

i have intel pentium dual cpu e2200@2.20ghz and its run on 1.47ghz and when i run games then also it stays at 1.47ghz. this happened only after i changed my mobo because my previous one died. also i have 4gb ram but it shows only 3gb ram. the rated bus speed for my processor is 531.1 MHz but it always stays at 133.0 MHz. help !!!

Is the cpu running hot? Do you have a 64bit Windows version?
Did you update the BIOS?

The multiplier on the CPU is wrong. Could be that the BIOS on that motherboard does not support your CPU. Track down the most current BIOS version for your motherboard and update it if it is not already running it.

Please list your system specifications... outside of the GPU we have no idea what you have!! It is hard to help without any information.

the multiplier i have max is 11x and its on 11x only and my mobo supports my cpu and my bios is award phoenix 6.0 and why my ram is showing 3gb instead of 4gb

Your stuttering is probably caused by your processor getting gimped to 1.5Ghz, as mentioned in the other thread you made.

so what should i do? plz help but i think its not processor because i changed the mobo a few days ago and before that i had gainward gpu only and when i was having my previous gpu zotac games ran without stutter. and what should i do to fix my procoessor.

Good call RCoon!!!

How about a merge of those two threads since these are more than likely related?

I would perhaps begin by filling out your system specs: http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/account/specs
Then we can take a look at your processor model and motherboard and see if something isn't supported.

If you are using a 32 bit windows version now, only 3GB of memory will be usable, you need to have 64bit windows installed for windows to use all 4GB of memory

i tried installing 64 bit but still it remains 3gb

MIRTAZAPINE · Nov 13, 2015

Sound like you need do a memory remap in your bios settings if there is any. So you on a 64 bit windows currently?

If you check his specs hes on 32bit now

but i tried installing 64bit hoping that it might fix the problem but still it says 3gb and in bios also it says 3gb

I'm a newbie, might accidentally ban 20,000 users or something. Or start posting woefully imbalanced news for my own diabolical ends.

Did you buy this "Lord Electronics" motherboard used?

nope. Its new and originally its the e-spectrum g31 mobo.

So it's this motherboard with 2 RAM slots: http://e-spectrum.in/products/es-mb-g31/92/ ?
So you are using 2x2GB DDR2 sticks and it only shows 3GB on 64bit windows

CJCerny · Nov 13, 2015

Could be that the IGP is set to use 1GB of memory, although I've never seen a G31 BIOS that could do that. Can you reset the BIOS to its default settings?

This screams "bios issue" to me. He likely needs the latest version.
