That could be the CPU power saving option being active when the CPU is under a low load condition.

Do you have "Cool and Quiet" and other CPU power saving options enabled (Auto may be enabled) in the UEFI/BIOS?

If so, that could explain the change in CPU speed. Normal functioning of the CPU with the power saving options enabled.

My FX 8350 keeps going down to 1.4GHz.
The temps look fine so why can't I get it to stay at 4GHz?
