I7 9700k showing negative values

Max Core Frequency is showing as a negative 3.60 Ghz on XTU. It will sometimes spike up to the regular value but for the most part it stays there even while benchmarking or stress testing.

Hello Canito,


Thank you for posting on the Intel️® communities. I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with the XTU that the Max Core Frequency is showing as a negative value.


For this type of issue, please try the following recommendations:

  • Uninstall any other overclocking tool.
  • Completely power down the system for 5 seconds.
  • Perform a fresh installation of the Intel® Extreme Tuning Utility (Intel® XTU).
  • Load BIOS to default.


Best regards,
