I recently installed my Maximus Rog X Code into a new case with a new AIO liquid cooler (NZXT X72). Once completed, I clocked my i7 8700K to a stable 5.1GHZ @1.34 volts, just like its been the past year. My cpu boots and idles between 21c and 26c and on full load maxed at 60c. Yes its delided and has been so since Jan of last year . The problem I am having is that everytime I reboot my PC, it defaults back to 3.7ghz, this according to Dual Intelligent processor, core temp, CAM software and CPUID. Dual Intelligent Processor 5 seems to think that it is running at 5.1ghz but whenever I run a stress test on the CPU, it will not surpass 3.7ghz. If I reboot my PC into bios, it shows that its running at 5.1ghz, and when I saved the settings in the bios as is, then it boots back to the overclock settings at 5.1ghz and runs well. Its not until I start the computer to windows normally from a shut down that it defualts back to 3.7ghz. I'm not sure why this is happening but its bugging me. Can anyone help with this please?
