Might be. My i7-990X (factory: 3,46GHZ, overclock: 4GHz) says 99% for the Poser process, cores charged at 3997.4 MHz turbo included (yellow bars) but incidental dips and peaks (see Core4) happen. Turbo off runs at 3,46HGHz. TMonitor performs 20 samples / sec.

Individual threads however perform different, turbo off make most (!) of them run at 3464.5 (next image), but with turbo on none (!) of them made the full 4GHz (image after that). I am loosing some 4% there.

So, run TMonitor with the -T option (threads), and find out if your 3500-setting really delivers.

I'll stop this now, as we are sort of sidetracking this forum thread.

Usually I'm wrong. But to be effective and efficient, I don't need to be correct or accurate.
