Processor issue i13900K

Hello,

I'm not an expert, so please tell me if the P-core 4 and 5 multiplier varies a lot, does that mean my CPU is damaged ?

 

I attached a picture also.

 

Thanks.

Hi cos,

 

It's normal for CPU core multipliers to vary, especially under different loads and power states. Modern CPUs dynamically adjust core speeds to optimize performance and power consumption. Significant and consistent variations in specific core multipliers could indicate an issue, but it's not necessarily a sign of damage. It could be due to thermal throttling, power delivery issues, or BIOS settings.

Hello Randy,
I'm sorry but I was right, the processor was damaged after almost 1 year of use and the seller refunded my money. Instead I bought a 14900 which so far I see has not caused any problems.
