Hello, just got brand new amd fx 8350 for Christmas and installed it with a cooler master hyper 212 evo.

When i go to system from control panel it says

Processor: AMD FX 8350 4.33Ghz.

Stock speed for a 8350 should be 4.0, why is it overclocked?
I never overclocked it. Personaly iv never overclocked a cpu before.?

I updated my bios to the current version with no errors before i installed the cpu and heat sink. just it says 4.33 instead of 4.0.

In Bios it says CPU current speed: 4374

any one know why? and how to get it to default 4.0?

Go into the bios and choose to set options to defaults. There muse be a overclock setting has changed somehow.
 
It shouldn't do that, but the 8350 can handle that easily with proper cooling (which you have)... You could overclock that thing to 4.8 safely..
 
Its probably a OC setting as everybody else said. But why not keep it? A CM Hyper 212 and 8350 can do 4.3 very safely.
 
Probably somewhere between turbo mode and a setting in your BIOS. I wouldn't worry about it, although it's good to know what exactly everything is set to in your BIOS config.
