Hello
First of all: This problem probably is connected to my other problem with fps drops (from 60 to 57 constantly happens a few times in a minute)
I've tried alot already (see my other thread)
I've also read the sticky thread but it didn't help to change c-states and stuff
So my RAM and CPU seem to be dropping in the exact same manner.
RAM: from 1333MHz to 1332MHz
CPU: from 4,7 (or any other frequency -100 or slightly more)to 4,68 and BUS from 100 to 99
all at the same interval
Is that normal? I've let XTU perform a stress test so see if it isn't dropping under high load, but it still happens
I know fluctuating frequency is normal when idle, but this is under load and seems to be different...right?
Specs:
GTX 1070
16GB Corsair LPX 2666MHZ
i7 8700k
Seasonic Focus 650w platinum
ASUS ROG Strix Z390-E
Edit: here a link to the thread with a list of what I've already tried: https://forums.anandtech.com/threads/corsair-16gb-2666mhz-fps-drops.2568594/
Edit²: and if it wasn't for fps drops I would have said it is completely normal, but something seems to be off here....I'll try and deactivate spread spectrum, raising LoadLineCalibration up to 6 and then 7 didn't help, but it was worth a try, I guess
