At least since installing 3006 (but maybe before that, I'm not absolutely certain its only since 3006) with my rig Windows power setting set at Power Saver and the BIOS settings all at default (no overclocking at all) the CPU clock speeds (and also temperatures) are very high. At idle the cores are flying at 4100 MHz with no windows open with the CPU core temperatures very high and reaching in the 90s plus range with very basic tasks. At idle unless the fans are blasting at full the temperatures are nuts. There is no dust at all in the system, and it runs a water cooler, a Ryujin in fact. A virus scan done by a pro company found no virus, nor did any other virus scans. Task Manager shows nothing is using the CPU in any way a lot at all.
Can anyone help with this issue? I have powered the rig down until I know how to tackle this. This kind of thing can cook your components.

Looks like you're having the same problems I am. In HWInfo64 i noticed the cores are clocked near or above 4 GHz despite no/little cpu load. Also according to HWinfo the idle power consumption is 35 watts at its lowest, compared to 17 watts on bios v0802. Luckily i only flash one of the two bios's at a time so i could keep my previous setup. So i've just switched back to the alternate bios (bios 2 in my case). I don't know what Asus has done but this bios isn't as good as the previous versions and am surprised it has been released.
