HI!
My brand new 4770k is showing these massive clock speed spikes while stress testing.

As you can see of the tests showed that the cpu speed dropped to a lowest of 40mhz and raised to a huge number, Is this even possible? At no point did the system crash.
They appear irrespective of voltage and, as far as i can tell clock speed. They also appear while gaming. Curiously aida64 shows these same spikes while cpuz doesnt and remains a rock solid 4500 give or take a few mhz.
As its a new cpu I want to make sure everything is ok and the different reading from cpuz and the parity of readings from aiida64 and hwinfo have me confused as to which reading to accept.
I have no speedstep or c states enabled in bios and am running a clean build of windows 8.1 and using and msi-z87 g43 gaming motherboard
1st post on the forums and apprectiate any help.
Thanks.
