I'm trying to troubleshoot an issue with Argus monitor where the core speeds aren't being logged correctly. I initially thought it was down to Skylake being too new but it seems through testing from both myself and one of the Argus team on my computer that something else is polling the core speed register on the CPU and blocking Argus monitor from getting a reading.
Was hoping Skylake users would be able to download and install the program (don't worry it is very safe), see if it is working for them and let me know their hardware combinations along with what versions of motherboard drivers they are using and if any software installed that either came with the motherboard or has the potential to use this register. Am particularly interested in things like Asus AI suite or vender specific equivalent, Intel Xtreme Tuning, Afterburner etc.
You can get the download the beta version that has Skylake temperatures enabled from here.
After installing go to the CPU turbo tab within the Performance tab and you should see a fluctuating graph that shows exactly what each core is clocked at or turbo'd to in real time. Experiment with different loads if you like. It should not be locked at one frequency. Mine is locked at 4GHz.
