So I have an I5 3570k (Overclocked to 4.4 GHZ)
32gb 1400mhz ddr3 ram (Possibly only 1333, but it should all be matching modules)
and for whatever reason, I can only mine 80-100 h/s
For comparison, I also have an i5 2500k running at 3.4GHZ that is getting 180-200
16gb 1600mhz ddr3
It's not thermals (I'm at about 60C on hottest core)
and task manager says its getting about 80% of the CPU (roughly the same % on both computers)
Win 10 with winMiner
I was just curious if anyone might be able to narrow down the root cause of this slowdown. I'm not looking for a lecture on the unprofitability of CPU mining (I don't intend to mine with them, I just got winMiner and thought I would try it out for curiosity)

You'd use 3 threads (trying no affinity or affinity on cores 1,2,3 leaving 0), check in bios if ram interleaving is ON, clock ddr3 and timings as much as possible (your 2500k has 1600mhz ram
)
