The recently acquired HP Z4 G5 Xeon workstation CPU just don’t get past 4Ghz threshold?
According to Intel turbo boost Max spec, W3-2435 Xeon theoretically can go 4.5Ghz single core without thermal throttling. My CPU idles at 43 deg C, and max well below 65 deg Celcius. The process never pass 4 Ghz.
Single core speed is important to me since I use Solidworks which is a single-cored application for modeling unless I run simulation for CFD which will utilizes all 8 cores.
Is there something I need to tweak in BIOS?
