AI3 Showing Wrong BCLK Frequency

I have a Maximus VI Extreme and after upgrading to Windows 8.1, I also updated all the ASUS drivers and software including AI suite 3 .
Now AI Suite 3 shows the wrong BCLK frequency. The BCLK should be 100 but it shows 80.

Previously it would show the CPU frequency as 100*39=3900. Now it shows it as 80*39=3120.
But in the lower left hand corner of AI Suite 3 it does show the correct frequency of 3900 under load. Also the OC Panel displays the BCLK frequency as 100 and the task manager also reports 3900 so it seems like it is AI Suite 3 that has a bug and my BLCK frequency is set to 100.

Anybody else having problems?

I am on the 0711 BIOS.
I guess I am a few versions behind.

Well unless you need to fix something and your system does what you want there is no need to update the bios. It is your call here. I do not really use AIsuite much so can not comment on the value of having it.

I updated to the 1002 BIOS. No change. AI3 still has the wrong value.
I use AI3 mostly for monitoring and fan settings. Any major changes I do them directly in the BIOS so I guess for now it is no big deal.

This bug occurs when you have more than 1 sensor monitoring software running at the same time. I know for a fact that combination of HWiNFO64 and AI Suite 3 can cause this.

HWiNFO64 was the problem. I had both of them running.
Thanks, Classic_GOD

Good point ClassicGod I did not ask about what other applications were open.

I know this one is an old thread... however I am having this problem myself. I ONLY have AI Suite 3 running. No other monitoring software. I am on the latest BIOS.
