Dear Intel,

I was able to test the CPU. It would not surpass 1.20 ghz. Thermal throttling at 100%. Spoke to Evga and after many attempts to solve the issue they believe that the mother board was faulty. I will be receiving a replacement in a few days. Though I am still concerned that it was thermal throttling even though multiple programs showed that temps were no higher than 33* Celsius. Does the processor determine shutoff, limp mode, when temps go beyond said point?

Thank you for the help!

Nik

Yes, the processor shuts itself down when getting higher temperatures, actually more than 70C.

I will be closing this ticket, if you need anything about the processor, please let me know.Allan.
