I originally built my PC in 2011, but I never had much of a need to actually overclock it until now. (The only parts I've replaced since then are my GPU and my HDD to a SSD.) I've been following guides to OC my 2500k, but no matter what I do, I can't get it to go above 3.3. (To be very specific, the most I see is 3292.96MHz, according to CPU-Z.)
The most recent guide I've used is this, but I've also tried others over the past week, with the same results, or lack thereof.
CPU: Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge Quad-Core 3.3GHz
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB
MB: BIOSTAR TZ68A+
RAM: 16 GB (G.SKILL Sniper 2x4GB, Corsair XMS3 2x4GB, both 1333 MHz DDR3)
OS: Windows 10 Home
Edit: I have used Prime95 to stress test, and it still doesn't go above 3.3GHz. I have also tried to just change the fixed CPU speed, the four individual cores, and both of those at once, with no change.
