My Core i7 2700K shows a clock speed of 1648Mhz which is way lower than the stock clock speed 3.5Ghz

any reason why it would be showing that in CPU-Z and CPU Meter (Windows Widget)

The reason why im asking is that i never overclocked or changed Default settings, so what is factory multiplier setting?

:confused:

your system is on idle.hence cpu z is showing 1.6 ghz.at load it should clock back to 3.5ghz.
 
103 MHz (if correct) is an overclock. However what you are seeing is the CPU downclocking at idle. Run prime95 or some other application that can put a load on the cores then look at the freq.

I should have thought of that before I posted (smacks myself on the head) :rolleyes:

Thanks for the reminder!
