Guys.
I tried my CPU with an Asus Z270 ATX motherboard and the CPU is hitting 4.2GHz perfectly.
It seems that my ASrock motherboard is having difficulties even having the latest BIOS update.
I opened a support ticket with ASRock.

I'd try to reset the default values in BIOS.

Someone at Asrock was asleep at the wheel and is treating your chip as tho it was a Skylake.

Don't blame Asrock for user error.

I know my HTPC is a damn lot older, but I didn't have any problems with H61/2500K putting all cores at max multiplier.

And I'd try SuperPI since if something is a single core benchmark, that's one of those.

The newer platforms r locked even with a K sku in a H/Q/B board when we r talking Intel.

using the cpu burner that comes with furmark (it lets you select how many thread to run) if i select just two threads and using real temp to measure the cpu core temps i see two cores at around 70 C and two cores at around 40 C.. the cores that are working run hotter than the cores that are not working..

all pretty obvious to me and how things should be.. if the OP is seeing all his cores at the same temp all his cores are working irrespective of what he thinks should be happening or what the benchmark says..

200mhz doesn't make much difference...

That may be true, but this (OP) was a guy who was going through hell trying to choose between 89 bucks HDD and 99 bucks SDHD.

Okay, new information for me.

Since when to be exact?

Since the 100 series chipset for LGA1151 this includes 100/200 Series when we r talking all other chipsets than Z ofc.

So B/H/Q as far as I remember correctly I might have a letter missing.
