4670k turbo showing up as 3.4ghz in bios

I'm not sure what happened, I remember it working correctly when I set it up. Haven't had any crashes and temps never reach 70C.

You are more than likely seeing the base speed, not the capacity of the turbo boost technolgy. 3.4 is the base clock speed.

The CPU won't sustain the 3.8Ghz. Think of it as like a shot of nitrous oxide in a car.

yeah i know 3.4 is the base speed but it's showing the actual turbo speed as 3.4 in the bios now. Before it was right and showed 3.8. Also CPUZ is showing the max multiplier as 34 now instead of 38 like it was before this started

Make sure that "Turbo Boost" is enabled in BIOS. It's possible that you've accidentally disabled it, or even a glitch that disabled it.

Turbo boost was enabled, I'm not sure what happened to it, I just cleared the CMOS and now it's working fine again. Thanks for the help though

Glad to offer a solution.
