After Overclocking the CPU, it consistently maintains its maximum clock speed.

Hi, today i buy a new PSU and i decided to do some OC to my I5-6600K to 4,2GHZ 1.250v...
After OC i do some test, and everything it's fine, but I realized that the CPU is always running the max Clock Speed 4,2ghz all time, and same happening to voltage i think.
Is that normal? or i need to do something more?
My PC:
Intel Core i5-6600K
MSI z270 Gaming Pro Carbon
Cooler: Aeroocol P7-l240 RGB
Kingston HyperX Fury(2 x 4GB) DDR4-2133
MSI GeForce GTX 1060 3GB 3GB
PSU: Thermaltake Toughpower DPS G 750w RGB GOLD
Implement speedstep.
In Windows power management adjust the minimum processor percentage to a lower value, maybe 20%, when the CPU is idle. The multiplier will then decrease.
Also choose adaptive voltage in the BIOS—its name might differ on your motherboard.
When the multiplier shrinks, adaptive voltage will lower the vcore accordingly.

Windows power management I am fine here

I disable the Intel Turbo in the BIOS, but it doesn't maintain a consistent speed of 4.2GHz and the voltage remains at 1.250V. I'm not seeing the adaptive voltage feature in the BIOS, can you assist me?
Sure, in adaptive mode you get the better choice now, and it's good that the maximum voltage isn't running constantly. Thanks for the help!
EIST should be integrated into the bios to support speedstep functionality. A relevant discussion can be found here: http://www.overclock.net/forum/5-intel-c...n-msi.html
