No, I'm not. 4x 3,9 GHZ works well enough for my necessities. I also checked the BIOS settings already yesterday. Everything's as intended.
Edit: After running speedfan for a prolonged time, I'm pretty sure, I've got a thermal problem. Which got better after blowing out the fans. GPU, CPU and Core still get kinda hot, but 10 degrees less than before cleaning the fans. The CPU fan has picked up anopther 200 RPMs since then, which helps to keep temperatures at least pretty constant. I've also monitored CPU useage, which is between 39 and 48 percent, using all four cores.
And here's the thing. I observed that CPU useage as well as CPU and GPU temperatures are highest when an ingame cinematic is playing. To my limited understanding, this is only about callling up an inbuilt bink player and letting the video run. This, again to my limited understanding, should stress the hardware less than actually playing.
