oh, a 6 page post.. runs away

given it took 6 pages to solve, anything is possible. You could ask @Darkbreeze although he may not want to know either

i assume you run intel processor diagnostic tool and Prime 95 in that thread, as it might be the CPU itself that is the cause. If it runs fine without turbo boost, it could be.. turbo boost doesn't add that much and you need specific situations for it to even work. Your CPU has same speed as mine (well, I do have a 4690K so it makes sense) and iit only boosts it too 3.9ghz anyway.

could be motherboard as well. chipset drivers maybe?

Run Intel processor diagnostic tool. If it's turbo boost related then it's either a bad motherboard or bad CPU. Nothing else can really have a direct relationship with boost behavior. Bent pins, standoff under motherboard in the wrong spot, bad CPU, just plain bad motherboard, bad BIOS firmware or BIOS ROM, faulty chipset driver installation. These are all things you've already looked at I think, so I'd run the diagnostic tool and see what it says.
