WELL THE VERSION OF MY WINDOWS 10 IS 20H2  AND BUILD NUMBER IS 19042.685 . THE TASK MANAGER IS SHOWING INCORRECT CLOCK SPEED OF CPU AS IT SHOWS CONSTANT 2.99 GHZ FOR OVER 2 MONTHS AND EVEN IN 100 % UTILISATION ALTHOUGH 4 GHZ IS THE MAXIMUM TURBO CLOCK SPEED OF MY AMD RYZEN 5 4600H CPU . 2.99 GHZ IS ALSO SHOWN WHEN ALL THE CORES TOUCH THE TOP LINE OF CLOCK SPEED IN THE GRAPH OF TASK MANAGER . SO I WANT TO SEE CORRECT REAL TIME CLOCK SPEED OF MY PROCESSOR OTHER THAN THIRD PARTY APPS BECAUSE THEY ARE JUNK AND SLOW DOWN MY PC . I GET TO SEE JUST UTILISATION OF CPU IN RESOURCE MONITER BUT I AM REPEATING AGAIN , I WANT CORRECT REAL TIME CLOCK SPEED OF CPU NOT REAL TIME UTILISATION OF CPU........

    Hi SayandeepHaldar,

    I’m Mario an Independent Advisor. I’ll try to help you with this problem.

    I reviewed your question, and how you indicate the Task Manager could be confused when show the information.

    Other possibilities that you can find using Windows, some not are graphical and could have the same characteristics that show Task Manager. I add below, the command and the documentation link for each, for your review:

    1. Using PowerShell

    Use the command:

    Get-WmiObject win32_processor | Seleccionar objeto: nombre de propiedad, MaxClockSpeed, CurrentClockSpeed

    Documentation Link:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/mod....

    1. Using Command Prompt

    Use the command:

    wmic cpu get name, maxclockspeed, currentclockspeed

    Documentation Link:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/290216...

    1. How to monitor CPU and network utilization (include Server Management Tools via web)

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versi...(v=vs.85)

    1. CPU-Analysis (include information about Windows Performance Toolkit)

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardwa...

    There are some personal user developments in C ++ on the internet, which worked in other versions of Windows, but they still do not present the information in the correct format in Windows 10, so I do not consider them.

    Also, you can find free tools as Hwinfo (https://www.hwinfo.com/download/), CPUID CPU-Z (https://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html/), that according some users not slow the PC notorily.

    I hope to help you. Please, tell me the results.

    Depending on your motherboard you may need to update the bios for windows to be able to show the correct information.

    As a comment, please try to post in upper and lower case characters as all upper case is shown as shouting.

    This is the support site for Microsoft but we are users like yourself and not Microsoft employees. If you want to talk to Microsoft employees then you need to contact them via their support number in your region.

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4051701/global-customer-service-phone-numbers

    or via the Get Help app in Windows 10.

    I think the advisor was referring to the non Microsoft link in their post however.
