It is The C1E setting causing the throttling. A power saving feature on the ASUS boards. Reduces multiplier at low CPU load.

Change C1E Support to Disabled

Where is that setting? Also I set it to 8.5 and got to 3.825Ghz at 45C (same as before!) w00t. Only a 1.35vcore too

EDIT: With proof, going to run prime for 15 or so now. I think this is going to be my primary setting, but I'll try for a 9x for games once I get some better fan control
