    Starting today, my core i7 2720qm has only been working on 1/8 the proper speed. I am checking the clocks on Open Hardware monitor.

    I have coolsense set to Performance optimized, but the max it seems to be going is 1.3ghz, but usually the current value stays at 800 mhz. I can seem to get the cores of the proccessor to go higher. I tried restarting and nothing worked. It should be clocking at least 3ghz speed per core.

    WHAT DO I DO!!!

    EDIT: NEVERMIND, i was just stupid, i had it on power saver. WOW I AM SUCH AN IDIOT.
