I change psu a month ago works perfectly. Then...... when I change my gpu.....

1) it wouldn't post. I turn the machine on. Lights on for 10 sec and it shut downs directly without posting bios. I manually disable c state, speed step and set the ratio to 40. Yet when I go to bios it said 1200mhz, when I go to windows 7 cpuz it said 1.2ghz. * ran intel burn test will 1.2ghz Throttle stop looks like this http://imgur.com/c3jE1u9

2) Sometimes if I am lucky, I got it to post it boots up perfectly BUT my cpu is always at 1.2ghz no matter what I do in bios. When I got lucky once, after that my system will boot up normally and bio do post. I will restart the no post cycle if I power off my psu for 15 sec (basically resetting the system?)

3) Sometimes it said no keyboard detected


* at the moment, I am at 1) so bascially my system post but my cpu is cap at 1.2ghz )=.

mobo: rampage v extreme
cpu: 5960x
gpu: 980ti
psu: EVGA SuperNOVA 1300 G2 80+ GOLD,



i double check all cables are connected, nothing is loose.

Thanks


Oh, and I update my bios. no use.

Sry I thought it might be your PSU but then read your whole post. Doesn't 5960x drop to 1200mhz or something when not under load. Have you tried testing it running a benchmark.

I'm at 1) now. I am boot normally but cpu stuck at 1.2 my throttle stop looks like this http://imgur.com/c3jE1u9 I ran intel burn test still 1.2. I manually set it to 38 ratio, disable speed step and c state. Still 1.2ghz. What's going on?
 
In both of your ThrottleStop pics, there is no load on the CPU, so 1.2Ghz is the correct clock speed.

Go into BIOS, and set defaults.

Go into Windows Power Options, and temporarily set Windows to High Performance to see if you get full clock speed.
 
ThrottleStop 6.00 does not support 8 core CPUs. The latest version should work OK. I wrote the program so both of those download links are safe.

ThrottleStop 8.00

There is never any reason to disable SpeedStep in the bios. If a person wants to lock their CPU at the highest multiplier, disable your C States and use the Windows High Performance power profile. Make sure that the Minimum and Maximum processor states are both set to 100%.

When you disable SpeedStep in the bios, some motherboards will leave your CPU locked at the lowest multiplier and there is no way for the CPU to ever get up to full speed because SpeedStep is disabled. Disabling SpeedStep can cause more problems than it solves.

Post some ThrottleStop 8.00 screenshots if you are still having problems. Use the built in TS Bench test to put some load on your CPU.
