I have a i5-7600 (non-K) on an Asus H110M-E/M.2 motherboard. (3.5 GHz/4.1GHz) Running Win 10 set to high performance mode, the CPU never seems to drop to 3500MHz when idle. Even when all 4 cores are at 0.x% usage, the lowest any core's multi seems to drop to is 3.8 for 38xx MHz. Of course, setting the power to balanced mode allows the multi to drop appreciably as one would expect. But I always assumed the the base clock speed of 3500 MHz would be what I would see at idle, not 3800 MHz. Not that I'm complaining, you understand. Just curious as to why that is.
I attached screenshot from HWMon. Notice that no core's multi drops below 38 even at idle. One core is even at turbo mode. Is this normal? When would I expect to see a multi of 35?
Turbo mode seems to work as expected.
