Hello!
My system specs are:
MSI B360M Mortar
Core i5-9600K
Be Quiet! Dark Rock 4 CPU cooling
2x8GB 2666mhz Kingston Hyperx RAM
MSI Gaming X GTX 1660Ti @ 2010mhz
Be Quiet! pure power 11 600w PSU
Kingston 240gb SSD
Toshiba 1TB HDD
Be Quiet! Pure Base 600 case
I just built a new pc, picked the parts out myself but CPU is not boosting to max advertised 4,6ghz it's only reaching 4,295mhz no more than that it,s locked on that when under load.
Or is it just boosting to 4,6ghz on 1 of the 6 cores?
Have i made a grave mistake picking a motherboard that is locked for OC and cannot use CPU's full potential?
CPU temperature with be quiet!'s awesome cooler is sitting comfortably 55-60celsius when gaming and CPU usage on average no more than 50%
I checked through the bios and all CPU related OC features seemed to be locked ( greyed out )
I cannot return the motherboard and switch to a Z390 chipset.
How much am i going to miss out, is it worth to cough up another 200€ for a new motherboard?
Kind regards,
Kristo
