I made an original change to my BIOS settings between 1600x and 3.9GHz with 1.375V. Those values remain saved in the BIOS, but when I open Windows and use a monitoring tool, the frequency shows up as 3.6GHz. The BIOS and drivers are all current (I’ll double-check later). It functioned well at first, but I’m curious if switching to a 3600(x) or 3700x would improve my experience in EFT. (Note: the 300MHz tweak really boosted performance for EFT—anyone playing this game should push their CPU to its limit.)

Hey, the issue persists. Occasionally when booting up the PC, the overclock doesn't activate. After restarting and entering BIOS, the overclock remains enabled, though it didn’t work during the last start. When I save and reboot again, it does apply. I even attempted to reduce it to 3800 MHz, but the same problems continue. Anyone can suggest a solution? Thanks.
