Hi
I overclocked my i5-6600k cpu from 3.5ghz to 4.0ghz by changing the multiplier to 40. But every time I go back into the BiOS, the "targeted cpu" says 3500mhz while "cpu ratio" stays at 40.
Here's a picture of what I mean.
But if I re-enter 40, the "targeted cpu" changes to 4000mhz. Here's a picture of the change.
I did run Prime95 to stress test it (here's a picture of that) and it says multiplier is 40.
So I just want to know, did my overclock stick? If it did, why does the BiOS' "targeted cpu" keep changing to 3500mhz while "cpu ratio" stays at 40? Or am I doing something wrong?
PS I don't know what image sharing site Tom Hardware allows, but I'm using xomf.com. Sorry for the bad quality picture; I don't know how to screenshot in BiOS
Also I won't be able to respond for a while, so apologies if I seem silent for a while.
