I'm running an i3-3220 in my unRAID setup.

 

During testing right now, my CPU will not go above or below 1.6GHz unless I telnet in and muck around with the governors and cpufreq-set commands.

 

Any ideas? Speedstep is enabled. Futzing around does change CPU speeds and such. As well, unRAID does not let the CPU go below 1.6GHz, which is odd, as in Windows 7, it's happy idling at 800MHz.

 

Thanks.

This is interesting as I have a Xeon 1240V2 and all of my 8 cores at idle are 1600 MHz though sometimes one or two will jump up much higher but at idle I have never seen them go below 1600MHz. Maybe this is part of unRAID's coding.
