[SIZE=10]Hi Sifus,

kindly share with me your thoughts or solution to fix my problem

Specs
Processor: I7-7700k (stock 4.2-4.5ghz)
Motherboard : Gigabyte Z270x gaming k5 with latest bios version F8 from server
Cooler: Deepcooler castle 240rgb v2

The settings I have applied in bios
-overclock values (4.7ghz)
-turbo boots enable
-vcore 1.35V
-Xmp profile enable

Windows setting
-High performance power enable

All these settings were applied in bios and pressed F10 save and exit. Unfortunately, after reboot to windows i check cpu-z and run prime95 with all cores running 100%, the values still remain the stock values (4.5ghz)

if one sets a constant multiplier in bios means all core oc ler..what ts needs to check is the base clock value and if unsure ts shall snap a photo for us to look on.
7700K can OC till 5GHz if temperature and silicon quality allows lol, it doesn't go "max at 4.5"

hi,

thanks for the info. I do know that the latest version bios of my motherboard is F9. and i tried to update using appcenter bios but unsuccessful. Hopefully ,that is not essential for overclocking

Belows are my screenshot of my settings

You mean the avx offset?
I tried it too, is was unable to set to 0. It will keep revert back to Auto

ts had said 4.5 but it probably be just an approx value for quick saying only..
have a look at ts screenshots, his all core is running at x44 multiplier on P95 load, and usual BCLK is 100MHz, so at 4400MHz.
in his screenshots u can also notice the clock is running at different power state...means going less than base clock, so again means his BIOS probably really not registering the change..though i am not sure if it's the instant clock or effective clock, if it's instant clock is at that rate (e.g. 800MHz seen in screenshots) means the BIOS didn't really OC the CPU, but if it is effective clock at that 800MHz  rate, we couldn't tell..therefore i'd always recommend running HWiNFO instead of CPUID HWMonitor

do you mind pm me your contact? I would like to seek more information

i wonder if it's some energy saving related problem. when u change ur multiplier to 47, can you go back into BIOS after the restart? see what clock speed ur CPU is running when inside BIOS. if it's running at 4700MHz in BIOS means the OC indeed did apply..

yes after restart I went into bios, inside bios is showing 4.7ghz.

means BIOS actually did apply ur settings, but somehow boot into windows all settings get torn or sth..
using windows 10? if yes try to open ur power plan settings and set to high performance plan (newer win10 has another one called ultimate performance), then change its advance power settings, then under processor power management set the min state and max state to 100% and reboot

I did bro but the result still the same mega_shok.gif

out of juice ler..need to summon more sifus. but if the bios shows that it can run 7700K at ur defined frequency means the BIOS definitely applied the OC values..

By any chance do you know any sifu can help me?? very much appreciate.

Your board should have this CPU OC profile:
user posted imageSet CPU Upgrade 7700K 4.6GHz profile, you may try it with enabled/disabled XMP profile, reboot into windows and check CPU-Z at load. Not sure if you're facing cooling limit when OCing to higher clock, perhaps you could try 4.6GHz instead of 4.7GHz.

Try higher CPU vCore LLC such as Turbo/Extreme etc, default (Auto) should be "Standard".
Higher LLC means less vdroop (vCore drops at load).

Alternatively, you may OC your CPU in OS via GBT's EasyTune software, but you will need to install APP Center first before installing this utility.

I have done all of the following, regarding the Easy Tune app in app center, it did apply the overclock values. However, once I reboot my PC it all went to stock value. Any other solutions?

if it doesn't stick after reboot something is interfering.
just uninstall all monitoring/tuning software including those of your aio, ... and start off fresh with an updated bios on default settings.
tune in bios first and see where this gets you.

ok bro I will try it tonight. thanks ya
