I recently bought CoolerMaster Nepton240M which is perfect holding my CPU temp under 70c full load at 4.7GHz but in system in windows 10 says 4GHz CPU at 4GHz. In Razer Cortex diagnose says also 4GHz. My CPU is 4.7GHz but ring/cache frequency is 4GHz. Is this the reason that Windows don't recognize the overclock that i am done?

Voltage: 1.350v, 1.150v
 
Solution
You have a 4790K? If so those are reading the stock for the CPU. Look in CPU-Z (free app) in the CPU tab, lower left at multiplier should show like 8-47 if OCed to 4.7
