I am currently overclocked to a max 4.2 ghz but whenever I run the benchmark option on GTA 5 (full ultra graphics), I get around 50-70% usage at 4.12 ghz at around 30-40 fps. Battlefield 1 at ultra gets around 75-80% usage with 4.12 ghz at 30-50 fps. Why am I not getting full usage and full 4.2 ghz in my games when they can be at peak performance for more fps?
